About Us

The Freiburger Bund is a nationwide network that accompanies international healthcare professionals on their journey to Germany and connects them with each other. Those who have already successfully arrived in Germany have the opportunity to pass on knowledge and experience to newly arriving colleagues here. This helps create a vibrant community where everyone can learn from each other, support one another, and grow together.

What does the Freiburger Bund offer?

Our network is still in development, and we want to work alongside all labor market stakeholders to create something truly unique. Our future plans include:

  • Expanding the Info-Portal: Regular publication of numerous articles about life and work in multiple languages (German, English, Arabic, French).
  • Developing an App, featuring three additional portals:
    1. Community Portal: A forum for members to connect and exchange experiences.
    2. Learning Portal: Digital learning resources to improve general and professional German language skills, including exam simulations and tandem programs.
    3. Job Portal: Personalized guidance and support for job searches and application processes.

Participate and network

The Freiburger Bund thrives on the commitment of its members – therefore, ideas and suggestions for further development of the network are always welcome. Together, a strong community is created that breaks down barriers to professional and social integration and supports international healthcare professionals in realizing their full potential in Germany.
