Citizens' forum meets on May 5 - focus on cleanliness, safety perception and youth participation

The Citizens' Forum of the City of Aachen will hold its next meeting on Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at 5 p.m. in the Council Chamber of the City Hall.

The focus is on a citizens' proposal for a campaign against cigarette waste in public spaces. The aim is to reduce littering caused by cigarette butts through education, improved disposal options and other measures and to raise awareness of urban cleanliness.

The results of the "The night belongs to us" survey will also be presented at the citizens' forum. The survey examined the perception of safety in Aachen's nightlife and shows that the perception of safety varies depending on the location and situation and that there is still a need for action.

Another item on the agenda is the concept proposal for the establishment of a youth council for the city of Aachen. The aim is to give young people a fixed and structured opportunity to participate so that they can contribute their interests to political decision-making processes and play an active role in shaping municipal procedures.

In addition to these topics, the meeting also provides space for residents to ask questions and make further suggestions and complaints.

The Citizens' Forum is a council committee of the City of Aachen and serves as a platform for exchange between citizens, politicians and the administration. Citizens can put forward their concerns here and talk directly to the relevant authorities.

You are cordially invited to take part in the meeting and get actively involved!
