GO YOUR WAY

The non-material scholarship program GEH DEINEN WEG supports talented young people with their own or family migration background on their path to entering the workforce. In nationwide funding areas such as vocational training and further education, education, as well as engagement for social cohesion and democracy, the program offers a financial grant as well as accompanying mentoring. A vibrant community of participants and mentors supports networking, exchange of experiences, and personal development. The goal is to reduce prejudices and strengthen role models in German society by enabling committed individuals to act as beacons and make the country’s diversity visible. Since 2008, the DSI Deutschlandstiftung Integration gGmbH has promoted equal opportunities with this program and paved the way to the labor market for young people with a migration background.

The funding opportunity is aimed at individuals who are about to enter the workforce or have just started and show an interest in social engagement. Application documents can be submitted at any time, as this is an ongoing call. Selection focuses on talent, motivation, commitment, and contribution to social cohesion. Within the community, scholarship holders benefit from workshops, individual mentoring, and regional networking events that provide practical impulses and insights into various industries. This creates a dynamic support environment that strengthens young talents, expands their career prospects, and actively contributes to securing Germany’s future viability.
