Description:

Volker Sommerfeld, a student of Scandinavian studies and a team leader, can be seen in profile with his right hand under his chin. In the background, two participants are sitting in front of the handwritten seminar poster in the blazing sun. Both are looking down.

The photo was taken as part of a weekend seminar from 3 to 5 July 1987 at the Stadtrandfreizeit- und Erholungsstätte Kladow recreation center in Spandau, which belongs to the Neukölln Bezirksamt (City District Authority) of Berlin. The seminar was organized by the Jugendförderung (Youth Support Program) of the Neukölln Bezirksamt to prepare the young people (aged around 16-17), students, and team leader for their joint stay in Nyksund from 18 July to 23 August 1987.
