Democracy under pressure! with Ina Hengstler in Sachsenhausen

A kiosk is a place of encounters, writing, diversity and opinions. In the Democracy under Pressure workshop, participants work together to develop a multilingual stamp alphabet with letters, numbers and symbols. They use them to print democratic demands, wishes and thoughts from children, young people and adults. Posters, signs, flyers or small democracy snacks are created and distributed in the district to show that democracy has many voices and languages: Democracy has many voices and languages.
