As part of the initiative "Schools: Partners for the Future" (PASCH), the Goethe-Institut organizes international youth courses for
students from PASCH schools from all over the world. Every year, scholarship holders
from over 100 nations, who have distinguished themselves at their schools through very good performance and a high level of motivation to learn German, meet to learn German in international contexts.
All about the youth courses
INTENSIVE GERMAN LESSONS
German lessons by qualified teachers according to the language level of the learners are the focus of the youth courses. All participants have the opportunity to take a Goethe-Institut examination during their language course in Germany.
GETTING TO KNOW GERMANY
In addition to the regular leisure programme with daily changing sports, cultural and leisure activities at the course location and in the surrounding area, the scholarship holders take part in excursions and outings, during which they also visit universities and research institutions as well as German companies. In this way, they get to know Germany as a place to study.
NETWORKING AND INTERCULTURAL EXCHANGE
During the three-week youth courses, the scholarship holders have the unique experience of learning German in an international learning community. They network with German learners from all over the world and - thanks to the Young Ambassador Programme - with students from Germany who accompany the courses on site.
It was a great experience learning German with so many students from different coutries. Playing games,doing different activities and really enjoyed to the fullest. I hope I can experience it once again in my future. Finally I improved the language profiency as well!

I had so much fun interacting with students from different countries and learning about their culture and background. Being able to fully immerse myself in the German culture and language was truly an educational and exciting experience for me.

PASCH JUKU 2022 in Sankt Peter Ording was indeed an amazing experience as I had this opportunity to interact with students from 7 different countries. I also get to learn and understand more about the culture and people in Germany. To me, the three weeks will be forever memorable.

The PASCH JUKU in St. Peter-Ording is an inspiring chapter of collective German language learning that broadened our horizons and created unforgettable memories.
Around 950 PASCH students from all over the world are once again invited to Germany for this year's PASCH Youth Courses. At 12 course locations from St. Peter-Ording in the north to Benediktbeuern in the south, the scholarship holders will spend three weeks practising German together, working on projects and getting to know the country and its people. The participants then report on their projects and experiences in a blog.
This year, 16 Malaysian students will also take part in the PASCH youth courses in Goslar, Dresden and Pforzheim.
You are a student at a PASCH school and you would like to participate in the PASCH youth courses next year? Would you like to meet young people from all over the world and learn German with them? Then talk to your teacher and apply now.
