About us
The Other Project is a registered nonprofit association based in Hamburg. In 2020, at the height of the Covid pandemic, we came together as friends and colleagues to start a project we hoped would bring us and others together on a regular basis. However, following the outbreak of the ongoing war in Ukraine and in response to the needs of those who had fled the conflict, our mission expanded to include securing the rights and livelihoods of refugees and asylum seekers regardless of their nationality.

Initial Orientation Course for protection seekers and migrants (EOK)
Protection seekers and migrants are introduced to everyday life in Germany, the values of German society, and the German language.
Legal-assist
Migrants, old and new alike, often have many questions: can I change my immigration status.
