Traveling exhibition: Democracy knows no age
In these times, it is important to take a stand. That is why GereNETZ, in cooperation with the Wiesbaden Volunteer Center, will be holding an exhibition on the topic of "Democracy knows no age" on April 14 and 15 in the town hall.
The traveling exhibition "Democracy knows no age" displays posters and photographs with personal political statements from people of different ages. The exhibition is based on a workshop organized by Wiesbadener Altenarbeit and the Volunteer Center, which was sponsored by Demokratie leben and took place last year. Several people came together to talk about democracy, co-determination, responsibility, and social cohesion. This resulted in individual messages – but also central themes and demands that were discussed together in the workshop.
"Democracy knows no age" highlights how differently – and at the same time how similarly – democracy is experienced and how valuable co-determination and engagement are at every age. The perspectives of the workshop participants are shared with the outside world and invite visitors to take a stand on the topic of democracy.
