We understand international volunteering as an act of solidarity, with the aim to build strong relations between people in the North and South.
In the area of diversity and inclusion WeltWegWeiser
especially aims to promote the participation of young adults with educational disadvantages or disabilities and to search for new approaches of European non-formal educational work in the field of international mobility.

WeltWegWeiser was founded by Jugend Eine Welt, an Austrian NGO specialized in development cooperation. Following the principle “Education overcomes poverty”, Jugend Eine Welt aims to improve the future prospects of children and young people on the margins of society around the world since 1997.
