Information evening for volunteers: Support for refugees in Spandau!
On September 10, 2025, an information evening about voluntary guardianships for unaccompanied minor refugees will take place in the Citizens' Hall of Spandau Town Hall. The organizers of this evening are the district offices of Reinickendorf, Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf and Spandau, in collaboration with the Guardianship Network for Unaccompanied Minor Refugees (NWV). Entry is free and registration is not required.
The event, which starts at 5:30 p.m. (admission from 5 p.m.), offers an important framework for discussion about the current situation of this vulnerable group. Around 1,900 unaccompanied minor refugees currently live in Berlin. Volunteer guardians play a crucial role in the arrival and integration process by, among other things, supporting clearing procedures and school integration. The aim of the evening is to provide information on individual guardianships, mediation procedures and support services.
Program and guests
The evening's program will include, among other things, an open discussion and reports on experiences. The guests include Sandra Scheeres, the former Senator for Education, Youth and Family, who has been a guardian herself for several years, as well as employees of the NWV and other voluntary individual guardians and wards.
The event is barrier-free and traveling by public transport is recommended, as the Spandau town hall is in close proximity to the S-Bahn and U-Bahn stations. If you have any questions, the email address is available to those interested integration@ba-spandau.berlin.de available. Further information is available at www.netzwerk-vormundschaft.de to find.
Importance of voluntary guardianships
Volunteer guardians are essential for the integration of unaccompanied minor refugees. Their support ranges from practical help in everyday life to emotional support, which is important for the stability of the wards. The NWV not only offers professional support, but also targeted training for the volunteer guardians in order to better cope with the challenges associated with this task.
The commitment of these people is invaluable for the future of unaccompanied minors and deserves widespread publicity and recognition.
