Become a host family in Hamburg for international young people for one school year
About this opportunity
Together with YFU organizations in our approximately 50 partner countries, our association is committed to intercultural education, civic education and the assumption of social responsibility by offering young people the opportunity to experience another culture as a member of a host family or as an exchange student and to gain new perspectives. Each year, YFU sends up to 1,000 German students abroad and hosts approximately 500 young people from other countries in Germany.
