Measuring the Impact: Building the Future
Discover the power of our mentoring programs, where impact takes center stage. We believe in measurable success, utilizing quality criteria as checkpoints to ensure the efficiency and sustainability of our initiatives. Our programs are designed to be transformative, fostering personal and professional growth. Join us on a journey where every connection creates a positive ripple effect, shaping a stronger and more interconnected community.
You need guidance, a little touch and help to adapt to the culture and living conditions you move to.
Think of a child who has forgotten his seven years of life because he was not supported and given the opportunity to develop. If we say that moving from one place to another is our destiny as human beings, then we should invest more than ever in these children. They should not live many of their years lost.
These children need to be brave again for big changes in their lives. Their fate and their choices will be the fate of the future world.
Offering these generations new prospects is like opening a new door for them. A door to development and a door to rebuild their lives. For the healthy development of their families, we should also create new opportunities for their families to enter the labour market.
Januam is there to create this environment to increase their chances by providing skills-based mentoring programmes for children, youth, and their families. Januam aims to achieve its goal by bringing together well-educated migrants, indigenous people, social and private institutions: Skills-based mentoring empowered by a resilient mindset.
Building New Lives and Meaningful Connections Through Skill-Based Mentoring
Januam was born out of real experiences. These experiences belong to the migrants who have come to Germany in the last ten years. Their personal difficulties and problems with their children, themselves and their environment have convinced some people that all disadvantaged people need professional and regular support.
Januam was founded by four people and built up by seven different characters. In addition, many others have contributed to the idea and improvement of the competence-based mentoring programme. Januam had the opportunity to talk to about 30 different international characters and backgrounds, more than five or six social organisations and about 50 young people and their families to understand their needs, interests and skills.
They all had some fears and some hesitations in their lives: They all want to add value because they know what they could have achieved more if their strengths and skills were more respected, valued and promoted. They also know that most people do not have the resources they have had to develop themselves, and that we have not always had the necessary awareness of the importance of investing in talent development.
Their will to add value
They moved from one place to another to build a new life from scratch: They had different motives for coming to Europe.
One is for a Master’s degree,
One is for family and university,
One is there to bring her loved ones together, and
One is there to find the meaning of life and
and so on … .
They want to build a new life for their families and they all want to build new meaningful friendships that will last forever.
The idea was first of all to add value with their own experiences. Their migration and their academic/professional backgrounds together create value in themselves. They want to scale the impact of their experiences by creating a non-profit organisation, especially with an international community to experience diversity and make it liveable.
From idea to implementation “A small team of Januam” has learned a lot.
Especially the participation in the programme of startsocial e.V. helped Januam to work goal-oriented and efficient with a clear plan.
Januam wrote their concept, improved their website with the plan of embedding CRM, register management and data management.
Januam achieved a great impact even in one year and is working smart to achieve her goals.
The desired end state is to establish a sustainable, non-profit social organisation that excels in skills-based mentoring to add value to all.
Januam is here to work with institutions, to help those who need a little touch in their lives and to bring together organisations, families, youth, mentors and volunteers.
