important initiative for participation in Görlitzer Park
Citizen participation in urban parks is becoming increasingly important. The upcoming elections for the new park in Görlitzer Park in Kreuzberg, which take place between 20 and 22 September 2024, are an outstanding example of this development. With these elections, citizens are given the opportunity to actively participate in the design of their local recreation area.
Every park, especially a place as lively as the Görlitzer Park, plays a central role in the life of the residents. The park acts as a link between the users and the district office. By choosing a new council, not only the voice of the park visitors is heard, but also their concerns and needs directly included in the decisions of the district.
Participation in the parking rate is possible for all users and residents from the age of 14, which promotes broad and heterogeneous access to the decision -making processes. The deadline for submitting applications ends on Sunday, September 8, 2024. This gives everyone who has an interest in the parking design, the opportunity to get involved and get their own ideas.
In order to give the candidate the opportunity to present their visions, a Speakers Corner in Görlitzer Park will be held on Friday, September 13th. This promotes the exchange and gives the voters the chance to learn more about the people behind the suggestions. Such events are essential because they not only spread information, but also strengthen the sense of community.
It is important to note that people with business interests in the park are not allowed to run for the council. This set of rules ensures that the parking rate remains independent and only works for the concerns of the park visitors without being influenced by commercial interests.
The upcoming elections not only represent an election period for the park; Rather, they stand for a trend of citizen participation in cities. Such initiatives contribute to the fact that public spaces are actively designed and the community combines more. The upcoming elections are therefore a step in the right direction to strengthen the voice of the community and create a space that meets the needs of all park visitors.
