MUSS NICHT SEIN

Campaign against aggressive driving in the city

Like many cities, Mannheim suffers from the aggressive and reckless behavior of posers and speeders. The campaign appeals directly to the scene and attempts to raise awareness of respectful behavior in road traffic. The special thing about this campaign: People with a wide variety of interests, backgrounds and functions got involved in the same topic together and at eye level. A multi-perspective project that shows how far you can get with dialog and cooperation.

HOW POWER SHARING SUCCEEDS

Campaign for Awareness, Diversity, and Inclusion

Cultural institutions across Germany are exploring ways to work (more) inclusively and to attract new audiences. The Forum der Kulturen Stuttgart is offering a practical solution: the concept of power sharing. The short documentary illustrates how this transformation process can be successful using the example of the Karlstorbahnhof in Heidelberg. The Forum worked with the entire Karlstor team for over two years as part of the "Diversity as a Task" program. From the management to the program designers to the technicians, all employees were sensitized to the topics of awareness and anti-discrimination.

JOBS4REFUGEES

Job-finding campaign for refugees

Work and a task in life provide stability and a sense of purpose. Especially for people with a migration background, a job helps to arrive in a foreign country and contribute to society. The Berlin-based NGO jobs4refugees supports refugees on their way into work and training. Together we implemented 5 short portraits as part of a fundraising campaign.
