Germany, a country which has a strong economy and is a popular destination for tourism and study, has received thousands of refugees in recent years, especially from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, as well as many African countries. 

All these refugees are faced with learning how to adapt and assimilate into German, or other European, culture.  This great influx of refugees has created a need for persons to engage and assist the refugees in skills needed for adaptation and assimilation.
