The Landesjugendring Baden-Württemberg (LJR BW) is a central representation of interests for youth associations and youth rings in Baden-Württemberg. It promotes the common interests of its member organizations and advocates for the well-being of all youth in the state.

The main mission of the LJR BW is to develop a sustainable culture of participation that enables children and young people to raise their voices and be taken seriously.

The LJR BW networks contributions from its member organizations and formulates youth policy positions to represent the interests of youth in politics and administration.

• Service Offerings: The LJR BW offers its member organizations comprehensive service offerings, including advice and support on topics such as insurance, financing, and cooperation between youth work and schools.
• Youth Education and Political Education: The LJR BW conducts programs for political youth education to introduce young people to democratic processes at an early stage.
• Promotion of Volunteering and Engagement: Projects like "The Länd of Young Volunteering" promote voluntary engagement at the regional level through advice and process support.

The LJR BW advocates for sustainable youth work aimed at long-term participation and co-determination of young people. By networking with regional actors and providing information about funding opportunities, it contributes to the further development of youth work. Additionally, it promotes the integration of young people into societal processes and supports initiatives to strengthen volunteering.

The LJR BW is represented in four administrative districts of Baden-Württemberg with regional offices that focus on specific areas such as new forms of engagement, voluntary engagement of young people, and volunteering in sports. These regional offices offer advice and support to local organizations to promote engagement and participation at the regional level.
