Our focus:
In Cologne, we support people with refugee and migrant backgrounds, primarily from West Africa and the Arab world, as well as from other countries around the world. From our location in Ehrenfeld/Braunsfeld (Maarweg), our linguistic and cultural focus allows us to primarily reach the West African communities.
Jama Nyeta gGmbH offers counseling on legal issues related to asylum, youth and family matters, housing, employment, and much more. As part of our labor market integration projects, we offer (subject-specific) German language courses and other recreational activities. We also provide additional counseling and support services for young people who are pursuing a college degree or vocational training.
As part of our development cooperation efforts in West Africa, we provide people with prospects for the future through targeted and sustainable projects in collaboration with local and international partner organizations by fostering sustainable networks among social enterprises, engaging investors, and providing specialized information. Through our direct support, we can immediately improve local livelihoods and combat poverty in the long term.
