It addresses two key needs in our city: affordable housing for students and apprentices, as well as support and a sense of community in everyday life for residents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In times of rising rents and growing social isolation, the project is based on a simple yet effective idea: bringing together people who can benefit from one another.<br>Students and apprentices gain access to affordable housing in a tight housing market. At the same time, landlords receive support in their daily lives and build social connections. This fosters personal connections, intergenerational exchange, and new perspectives.<br>The project is not exclusively aimed at people with specific support needs. Citizens who wish to provide young people with affordable housing and make a contribution can also become part of the project.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project is more than just a housing placement service.

This form documents your wishes, expectations, and general circumstances\u2014for example, regarding your living situation, support services, or the amount of time required\u2014as well as your interests and hobbies. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Housing Inspection:<\/strong> Before adding a property to our housing pool, we personally inspect the offered housing. During the inspection, we assess whether it is appropriate and suitable for students. This ensures that the listing is legitimate and reliable.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compatibility Matching:<\/strong> Based on this information, we assess who might be a good match for each other. The matching process is guided by the needs and expectations of both parties. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Getting to Know Each Other in Person:<\/strong> If both parties feel that things are generally a good fit, an initial meeting is scheduled. During this meeting, the host and the guest have the opportunity to get to know each other at their own pace and decide whether they can envision a living partnership. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Agreement:<\/strong> If both parties agree, the terms of their agreement will be set forth in writing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Support from the very beginning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Studentenwerk does not act as a landlord; rather, it facilitates and supports the process.<br>Throughout the entire duration of the housing partnership, the project coordinator serves as a dedicated point of contact for organizational questions as well as any uncertainties or challenges.

Magdeburg is my hometown. I was born and raised here, studied social sciences at OVGU, and am now serving as the coordinator for this project. I&#8217;m responsible for setting up, facilitating, and providing personal support for the housing sponsorship program.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"small\">Even while I was in college, I was particularly interested in topics like social cohesion and social participation. \u201cWith Each Other \u2013 For Each Other\u201d puts exactly that into practice. It\u2019s important to me that everyone involved feels well taken care of and knows they can turn to me at any time.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"small\">For me, this project is more than just a professional assignment. It\u2019s an opportunity to help shape something meaningful in my hometown and to facilitate encounters that truly make a difference.<br>In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, relaxing on Sundays, and having good conversations over a drink, and I\u2019m already looking forward to getting to know the people who are bringing this project to life. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Documents &amp; Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Application-Form-for-Students-and-Trainees.pdf\">Registration Form for Students and Trainees (English)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Application-Form-for-Housing-Providers.pdf\">Registration Form for Housing-Providers (English)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Guidelines-for-the-Use-of-the-MIT-einander-\u2013-FUeR-einander-Project.pdf\">Guidelines for Using the &#8220;With Each Other\u2014For Each Other&#8221; Project (English)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/FAQ-MIT-einander-FUeR-einander-Englisch.pdf\">FAQ for the &#8220;With Each Other, For Each Other&#8221; Project (English)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Privacy-Notice-for-the-MIT-einander-\u2013-FUeR-einander-Project.pdf\">Privacy Policy for the &#8220;With Each Other, For Each Other&#8221; Project (English)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-1536x512.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-2048x683.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-1080x360.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.studentenwerk-magdeburg.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/swmd_webfooter_spezial_2026-1-540x180.jpg 540w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WITH each other \u2013 FOR each otherHousing partnerships in Magdeburg WITH each other \u2013 FOR each other is a housing partnership project run by the Studentenwerk Magdeburg.
