As in other large cities, urban development processes and rapid changes in districts in Kassel are typically associated with processes of gentrification and displacement. Urban development based on solidarity, on the other hand, must mean, Actors from different milieus in the city(part)include development, to take their interests into account and to enable them to express themselves.

But how should participatory methods of urban development based on solidarity look like?? And how can groups/individuals be involved in urban development processes, which are difficult or. cannot be reached?

To deal with these questions, is a person of community work (GWA) St. Pauli E.V. to guest. for more than 35 For years, the association has been active in district work and combines social work with urban planning skills and concepts. Complex contacts on site, comprehensive knowledge and experience of the environment (intergenerational and intercultural) Network-, consulting- and educational work form the basis of outreach participation in places of everyday life of the residents. After an input from the speaker, we want to try together, to transfer the impulses received to the development around the Henschel site in Rothenditmold.
