 International Action Weeks
 Against Racism
 16th March to 6th April 2020
Show Courage – Raise Your Voice

    The “International Action Weeks Against        I would like to express my great thanks to
    Racism” are part of a nationwide cam-          everyone involved for their work and
    paign of action demonstrating solidarity       dedication. Through our joint actions, we
    with the victims – and opponents – of          are demonstrating our commitment to a
    racism.                                        future in which all people can live their life
                                                   in dignity and equality.
    In November 2019, I called upon the
    people of the city to participate in the
    action weeks: Our city, too, is by no          Dirk Hilbert
    means free of intolerant attitudes and         Mayor of the City of Dresden
    racist or discriminating thoughts and
    behaviour. But that is not to be accepted!
    On the contrary, we must stand up for
    peaceful coexistence in a cosmopolitan
    and diverse society.

    2020 will be a memorable year. We will be
    marking the 75th anniversary of the
    liberation from National Socialism and the
    end of the Second World War. The 30th
    anniversary of German Unification also lies
    ahead later in the year. Against this back-
    ground, an important thematic focus is to
    be placed on the dimension of racist dis-
    crimination in transformation processes.

    The members of numerous associations,
    initiatives, educational institutions, youth
    organisations and networks, as well as
    countless committed individuals, are
    contributing to a diverse programme of
    70 events during this year’s Action Weeks.
    Formats such as lectures and readings
    address the stereotypes and prejudices
    which exist in various spheres of our daily
    lives, whether publicly in schools or sport
    or in private settings.
