"Living Library" at the Talstraße Depot

Why do we need an initiative for democracy? What exactly do Mormons believe? What do you say to someone who is supposed to go into military service but doesn't want to? How does it feel to have a donor heart?

The City of Aachen invites you to discuss these questions on Wednesday, November 18, at 6:30 p.m. at the “Living Library” at the Depot, Talstraße 2. The idea behind the event: Instead of paper books, people here share their own stories.

Whether it’s social challenges, cultural diversity, or extraordinary ideas: The “Living Library” offers an opportunity to break down prejudices, engage in dialogue, and ask questions that a paper book cannot answer.

Five “books” will be available for discussion this evening. The topics are “Shaping Democracy Together,” faith, conscientious objection, donor hearts, and self-help for addiction.

The event is a collaboration between the City Library, the "Wegweiser" prevention program, the City of Aachen's Municipal Integration Center, and the Depot.

Admission is free. To help us plan, please register in advance by emailing depot@mail.aachen.de.

Date: Wednesday, November 18, 6:30 p.m.
Location: Depot, Talstraße 2, 52068 Aachen
