Unabhängiges Jugendzentrum Pankow

Description

The JUP works according to the principle of self-organization; everyone can get involved, take responsibility and help shape things. Interested people can also become members of the association and participate in decision-making processes.

When young people from Pankow occupied the building that now houses the JUP shortly after reunification, it was also about creating a free space for culture and communication. This has remained the case to this day. Everyone should feel comfortable in the JUP, regardless of their skin color, origin, gender or sexual orientation. The "Stilbruch" café on the ground floor of the building has always been the center for the more colorful part of Pankow's youth.

Because of its democratic and human rights orientation, the JUP has been repeatedly attacked by right-wingers and neo-Nazis in all the years of its existence, without this being able to change the course of the house.

The JUP is a special meeting place for young people. Projects and courses that take place in our house are organized by you. It's all about what you want and what you make of it. Our core group consists of teenagers and young adults aged between 15 and 27.

Courses and projects usually take place once a week. You can find out the current times for our activities on the notice board in the JUP hallway or from the staff in the office. If you would like to use our rooms for your projects or organize a course with friends, we will be happy to answer your questions and help you with the planning.
