After two successful years, our series of events „Gesellschaft im Dialog“ will start on 04.05.2022 at 6 pm with the reading "Solidarität in Umbruchszeiten Oder: Die Revolution hat ein weibliches Gesicht. Der Fall Belarus" with the Belarusian activist Dr. Olga Shparaga in a new and exciting round.

This year, the focus of the TU Dresden project, in which various civil society cooperation partners and academics engage in dialogue with a broad public in Saxony on a scientific basis, is on the topic of "Disruption, Belongings and Democratic Participation"; in particular, the transformation experiences of the years 1989/90 in Germany, but also processes of change beyond that, will be examined and discussed.
