Concept

The special exhibition platform using the motto “Youth incoming Germany” will showcase itself for the 8th time at the Berlin ITB 2012. In the YiG, Germany's pavilion for youth travel will be a host of providers offering youth travel.

The international trade organisation of youth, student and educational travel, the WYSE travel confederation has been acting as the leading foreign partner organisation within YIG.

From those offering youth accomodation, holiday camps, school breaks and youth camping parks to those who are more focussed towards youth travel, language development travels, and those offering work experience (to foreign nationals coming to Germany) and organisations providing youth exchanges, school trips, leisure parks/ attractions, culture and development for young adults. The five day long concept looks at the time involved, costs and personal budgets available to young travellers.
