Every Tuesday night in the second half of 2021, this year’s Emergent Berlin Festival provides a platform for people and projects to reconnect, reflect on and share our collective and individual experiences and strategies.
All local projects working to contribute to the transformation towards sustainability in Berlin and beyond are invited to participate. The setting is open and informal, so you’re warmly invited to join us whether your idea/initiative is still in its early stages or already well-established.
