[DeepL:] The neighborhood institution Kieztreff is a multi-cultural place of encounter and communication. The visitors are a reflection of the population in the neighborhood. The residents find each other in the neighborhood café, at the monthly brunch or in courses and groups. In addition to seniors and adults living alone, many families visit the facility. The large hall is made available to families for children's birthday parties. Seniors also often celebrate birthdays here and are happy about the accessibility.
The language café is very popular with refugees and volunteers. It enables refugees to deepen and apply their German skills. The refugee work is reflected daily in help with dealing with the authorities, scheduling visits to specialists and much more.
The Kieztreff is an exchange for neighborly commitment, help and requests for help, for example with correspondence, checking job center notices or assistance with job applications. The police hold regular citizen consultation hours here. In addition, the facility offers citizens' initiatives space for their meetings.
Togetherness, being there for each other, mutual appreciation and respect take up a lot of space in the facility. Martina Sawaneh, project manager at Kieztreff, sees her task as creating the atmosphere that makes neighborly help possible.
