terre des hommes (Gruppe München)

Our goal is a "terre des hommes", an "earth of humanity". We protect children from slavery and exploitation, help refugee children, care for the victims of war, violence and abuse and provide education and training for children. We support boys and girls whose families have died of Aids and campaign for the right of children to a healthy environment and for the protection of discriminated population groups. terre des hommes does not send helpers from Germany, but supports local initiatives with donations and advice. Our local project partners organize self-help projects and look after children in safe child protection centers. As a children's aid organization, terre des hommes consistently aligns its work with children's rights. Our Munich group is one of over 100 in Germany. We meet every two to three weeks at 7 p.m. in the "Aquamarin" restaurant on Prinzregentenplatz in Munich to discuss current issues and projects. Anyone can contribute themselves and their ideas. Recently, for example, we had an appearance on the children's radio station "Feierwerk" and a children's rights quiz at the Children's and Youth Museum. We had the opportunity to present terre des hommes at various events (e.g. Wintertollwood). This year we are planning a project trip to Weiden, another radio appearance and the "Street Children's Action Day". Our group size currently varies from approx. 6-15 active participants. We are always happy to welcome new interested adults - regardless of age and professional experience, the meetings are non-binding - and are happy to drop by spontaneously at the next meeting (the dates are announced on the homepage). Children and young people can also get involved with us. For more information, please visit www.weltretter.de.
