The W3_ is an educational and cultural center around global justice. It offers a platform for encounters and exchange and, with its diverse program of events, encourages critical questioning of social conditions. It invites to inspiration, to experience, to reflection and to common action for a global and local justice.
With lectures, workshops, conferences, symposia, readings, performances as well as film screenings and actions, W3_ establishes the connection between local politics and global developments in series of events, projects as well as individual and cooperative events and motivates people to get involved. With dialogue-oriented/participative formats such as performances and actions in public space, spontaneous interactions with residents of the district are realized, which actively call for participation.
It is important to W3_ to focus on less present voices and alternative perspectives, to make them audible and visible, and to think and link local and global dimensions together. The goal is always to make people think, to provide inspiration and ideas for their own everyday lives, and to show options for action.

For over 14 years, our mission is to accompany refugees, to provide services and to advocate for their cause. We provide holistic (social and legal assistance, education, cultural and educational activities, financial support and accomodation, advocacy and lobbying, research, studies and surveys, training and seminars, awareness campaigns and information) through various types of projects that we develop (11 projects in 2013).
We assist all categories of refugees and migrants (people with a form of protection in Romania, relocated people, asylum seekers, people in detention, refugees marginalized, tolerated, migrants coming to work or study and others). We are present in all centers opened in country as well as in detention centers (8 centers in total).
JRS Romania has a night shelter in Bucharest named “Pedro Arrupe Center” and also a Multifunctional and Cultural Center named “MyPlace”.
Over 1.500 refugees have been assisted in areas such as association and economic exclusion, detention, integration and acceptance conditions. About 20 specialists work constantly in order to accomplish our mission, supported by many enthusiastic volunteers of all ages and in all fields.

Our office was founded in 1982 as a department of the "Friends and Sponsors of Intercultural Relationships" association and was located in the international centre of the German adult education centre (VHS) in Duisburg until 1989. In 1990 it moved its headquarters to Essen and since then it has been registered and legally recognized as the non-profit organization "EXILE – Coordination of Cultures".
Our organization wants to present cultures from other parts of the world to the German public, with a particular focus on developing countries and on migrants residing in Germany. We also create, organize and set up exhibitions and other events that are related to intercultural topics.
Music, theater, literature, and the fine arts are especially well suited to providing an insight into other cultural perspectives and life experiences, which raise our sensibility for more conscious contact with both our own cultural environment and other cultures.
Our cooperation partners include the church and trade unions as well as a broad spectrum of individuals and organizations involved in intercultural, sociocultural, and educational domains as well as in development policy issues.
Many projects are carried out in cooperation with organizations such as Terre des Hommes, Amnesty International, TransFair, and institutions like the West German broadcasting service (WDR), the cultural office of North Rhine Westphalia, and the cultural and educational centres of local authorities. Much of our work is financially supported by the government of North Rhine Westphalia within the framework of the One-World-Promoter Program.
