Civic Engagement Week: City Calls for Participation

From Friday, September 11, through Sunday, September 20, the state capital of Wiesbaden will participate in the nationwide Week of Civic Engagement. Under the theme “Shaping the Future Together,” the focus will be on community, solidarity, and interaction between people and across generations.

Clubs, initiatives, educational institutions, social service organizations, and other committed stakeholders are invited to help shape the action week with their own activities. A wide variety of formats are possible—from workshops, lectures, and readings to sports and cultural activities, as well as open-format gatherings and creative initiatives.

We are looking for activities that highlight volunteerism, bring people together, foster connections, and build bridges between generations and different walks of life. Existing or regularly scheduled activities can also be included in the program. Those interested can find suggestions and practical examples for their own initiatives at engagement-macht-stark.de/themen/2026/miteinander-zukunft-gestalten (opens in a new tab).

Participants are free to choose the date, location, and format of their initiatives. The calendar of events for Civic Engagement Week will be published this summer. Those interested are asked to register their initiatives by Friday, July 31, at the latest, at umfragen.wiesbaden.de/abfrage_woche_des_engagements (opens in a new tab).
