Which places in Cologne are important to you? Where do you like to hang out, where do you feel uncomfortable\u2014and where could a creative touch actually be added? In the \u201cReStory\u201d project, you can make the city your own space.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We at ROOTS & ROUTES Cologne e. V. (RRCGN) have launched the project \u201cReStory \u2013 Reclaiming Public Space through Participatory Narratives\u201d<\/strong> in collaboration with international partners. Our goal: to reclaim public space together with young people and redesign it through artistic initiatives. But to do that, we need your input!<\/span><\/p>\n

To ensure we address the real needs of Cologne\u2019s residents, we need your expertise now.<\/p>\n

We want to know which squares, parks, or street corners are meaningful to you. Based on the results of this survey, we\u2019ll work with interested young people later in the project to create a real artistic intervention<\/strong> at a location in Cologne that you choose!<\/p>\n

Anyone between the ages of 16 and 30 who lives in Cologne can participate!<\/p>\n

  • The survey will only take about 3 to 5 minutes.<\/li>\n
  • Your responses will be analyzed anonymously.<\/li>\n
  • If you\u2019d like to not only vote but also get actively involved in the art project later on, you can voluntarily leave us your email address at the end of the survey \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Let\u2019s show together what matters to young people in Cologne. We look forward to your ideas and your perspective!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \u201cReStory\u201d is an international project within the ROOTS & ROUTES network, coordinated by RRCGN and funded by the EU\u2019s Erasmus+ Youth program. Together with partners from various countries, we are exploring how young people perceive public spaces and how they can actively help shape them through participatory storytelling and art.<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
