Country Office Latvia

Who we are and what we do

The Latvian country office of the German-Baltic Future Foundation is actively committed to the socio-political, cultural and historical exchange between Germany, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.


It organizes local events in Latvia, connects them with other GBYEN partners and actively represents the DBJW in the country. There is also a long-standing partnership with the German War Graves Commission, within the framework of which the summer camp in Latvia is organized.


We work closely with the Latvian Association of German Teachers, the German Embassy in Riga and other partners.


If you are interested in a cooperation, please let us know!
