About DACH Discovery
More than a journey.
DACH Discovery is an educational and orientation project by Januam gUG, offering young people the opportunity to experience Germany, Austria and Switzerland from a new perspective.
This is not simply a sightseeing trip. We want to explore how people live, learn and work in different regions, meet organisations and institutions and discover new educational and professional perspectives.
Participants are not just travellers. They contribute ideas and help shape parts of the journey together with the group.

DACH Discovery is not a traditional organised group tour.
Januam provides the framework, but participants actively help develop the programme and make decisions together.
- What would we like to discover in each city?
- Which organisations would we like to visit?
- How should we organise our days?
- Which routes and transport should we use?
- What do we want to learn about local life?
