This research examines how students at the German Jordanian University (GJU) imagine their futures, particularly in the context of the German Year program, which involves a semester abroad and an internship in Germany. Since young adults -and especially youth in Jordan’s crisis-affected region - are underrepresented in future-oriented studies, the project fills an important gap. Using a one-year, multi-sited ethnographic case study, it explores how students negotiate and reshape their imagined futures over time and across borders. The study introduces the concept of doing future, emphasizing that the future is not a distant horizon but an ongoing, everyday practice actively shaped by individuals within social structures.
