Our understanding of living together
Moving presentation at the "Long Night of Democracy"
With dance and a lot of passion, the dedicated performers of the Tanzraum brought the ten statements of the "Common understanding of living together in Rastatt" to life at the "Long Night of Democracy" on October 2 in the Rossi House. They staged a performance to show what the understanding of living together in Rastatt should look like. The city of Rastatt had previously developed this together with citizens and recorded it on paper. These include the principles "We stand up for equal opportunities for all" and "We want to live in peace and security".
Many thanks to the performers in the dance room: Kathrin Schneider, Monika Hetzer, Nicole Smuda, Martha Faller, Olga Salwasser, Jutta Eckert-Schirmer and Dieter Michelbach as well as director Romina Becker.
Community understanding of good coexistence
What should living together in Rastatt look like? The city of Rastatt has worked out this together with citizens in many rounds of discussions and with the help of an online survey as part of the "Diversity along the Murg" project. This resulted in "Our understanding of living together", which was submitted to the "Living together in Rastatt" network for discussion and presented to the municipal council on July 1. If you are interested in strengthening cohesion here in Rastatt and participating in campaigns, simply give us a call or send us an e-mail. Because only "together" we are strong.
