The Socialist Youth of Germany – Falcons (German: Sozialistische Jugend Deutschlands – Die Falken, SJD – Die Falken) is a voluntary organization of children and young people[1]. Like the Jusos (youth organisation of the Social Democratic Party of Germany) the Falcons are member of the International Union of Socialist Youth, the Young European Socialists and the International Falcon Movement.

As a political organisation with a history of over 90 years, the falcons organise camps and other spare time activities to encourage children and young people for more democracy, social justice, equality and a substantial change in society.
