Community initiatives focus on dialogue and social connection in Germany

In Bad Hersfeld, state parliament member Kaya Kinkel hosted an open consultation session at Konzepthaus. The event focused on direct dialogue with citizens regarding local issues such as public transport, culture, and climate protection, rather than traditional formal speeches.

In Braunschweig, Ann-Kathrin Gabka is planning to open Café Inge, a project designed to combat loneliness among the elderly. The concept aims to create an intergenerational space where seniors can participate in baking using traditional recipes and engage in workshops, fostering connection between different age groups.
