International weeks against racism 2024: program call for diversity

In Marzahn-Hellersdorf, the international weeks against racism will take place again in 2024. Under the motto "Human rights for all", various events and actions should set a clear sign against racism. The “AG Political Education”, an amalgamation of specialists from youth leisure facilities and other community work projects in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, calls for actively participating in the program.

The organizers hope to win as many institutions and projects from associations, cultural institutions, initiatives, administration and other organizations for international weeks against racism. The submission of event ideas is possible until February 25, 2024 to ensure timely publication of all offers.

Special attention is paid to the avoidance of right-wing extremists, racist, anti-Semitic, sexist, lgbtiq*-hostile or other democracy and misanthropic content. Events or organizers who have appeared in the past with corresponding statements or references are not taken into account.

For support in finding ideas, networking, looking for space and other concerns, interested parties can contact the coordination office for Democracy Development Marzahn-Hellersdorf.

The exact program detail of the international weeks against racism 2024 is published on the website of the “Alliance for Democracy and Tolerance Marzahn-Hellersdorf”.

The international day against racism takes place annually on March 21st and is an important occasion to draw attention to the topic of racism and to set an example against discrimination. The international weeks against racism take place around this date to act against racism at local, national and international level.

The commitment to a solidarity and for the protection of human rights is particularly important against the background of the history and development of Marzahn-Hellersdorf. The district has had to struggle with tensions in terms of migration and integration in the past, and the effort for tolerance and diversity is therefore of great relevance.

A broad participation of associations, cultural institutions and initiatives can help to raise awareness of racism and discrimination and to stand up for solidarity together.

To inform the readers about the upcoming event, and to emphasize the importance of the struggle against racism and for human rights, a table with relevant information on the international day against racism and the international weeks against racism 2024 is added:
