Jugend- & Kulturprojekt e.V. (JKPeV)

The Jugend- & Kulturprojekt e.V. (JKPeV) was founded in 2004 in Dresden and has since established itself as a central institution in the field of art, culture, and education. With a strong focus on promoting young people and strengthening the local cultural scene, JKPeV offers a variety of projects and events.

• Cultural Events: JKPeV regularly organizes exhibitions, workshops, concerts, and other cultural events at the KulturCentrale in Dresden. These events include art exhibitions, music therapy workshops, and interactive game workshops such as the "RadicalGame" project, which raises awareness of radicalization and extremism through gamification[3].
• Educational Programs: The association offers programs for personal and professional development, including coaching and further training opportunities. These programs aim to empower young people in their skills and promote their participation in society[2].
• Networking Events: JKPeV hosts networking events like "LET'S SHARE ONE UMBRELLA," aimed at connecting organizations, clubs, and creatives from the fields of education, art, and culture, and revitalizing the local cultural scene[5].

The main mission of JKPeV is to promote and empower young people through cultural and educational activities. The association is committed to the quality development of youth work and youth policy and works closely with various youth organizations to achieve these goals. Values such as inclusion, creativity, and active citizenship are at the core of JKPeV's work[2].

JKPeV is also engaged in comprehensive sustainability initiatives, particularly in the area of climate protection. The "Compass for Climate Chaos" Summer Camp is an example of how the association supports young people in dealing with the emotional challenges of the climate crisis and actively fighting for climate justice. These initiatives demonstrate JKPeV's long-term approach to promoting a sustainable and just society[Informationen].
