Discover the neighborhood projects in the Märkischesviertel!

There are numerous initiatives in Berlin that strengthen neighborly coexistence and enrich life in the districts. In the Märkischesviertel in particular, the BENN (Participation, Development, Neighborhood) project helps to promote the positive development of the district. BENN relies on networking to develop offers and projects that benefit all residents. We work closely with various providers and initiatives to create needs-based offerings, such as regular language and meeting cafés and garden projects.

A central point of contact is the BENN office at Wilhelmsruher Damm 161, 13439 Berlin, which can be reached on 030 51052347. We are currently gardening together in the “Beettinchen” neighborhood garden, an event that takes place every Tuesday from May to the end of September. Everyone is welcome to bring plants and herbs, exchange ideas and relax with coffee and pastries.

Importance of neighborhood initiatives

Neighborhood initiatives play an essential role in community cohesion. Their goal is to improve the quality of life through events and meetings. This happens in close cooperation with politics and administration, as on the platform Use your place described. These initiatives enable citizens to actively participate in urban development and to incorporate their wishes into decision-making processes.

Such initiatives are particularly active in Kreuzberg and other parts of the city and promote cultural events and regular meetings. The Berlin administration supports these projects with financial resources and infrastructure.

Overall, the numerous projects in Reinickendorf and especially in the Märkischesviertel offer a valuable opportunity to reduce social isolation and build a strong sense of community. The commitment of citizens and support from the administration are crucial to the success of these initiatives. Further information on this can also be found on Märkischesviertel and Berlin.de.
