We cordially invite you to the 1st Diversity Conference of the City of Erlangen. The conference will take place on:

Friday, 24 June, 11.30 – 16.30, at Kreuz+Quer, Bohlenplatz 1.

The invitation in simple language as well as the agenda can be found on the website of the City of Erlangen.

Whether in the fight against climate change, in acting considerately during the Corona pandemic or in helping the people from Ukraine: in these crisis-ridden times, we all prove every day how well we can stand together as a city society. That is why the motto of our first Diversity Conference is “Diversity connects”.

At the first Diversity Conference, several departments of the City of Erlangen from the areas of inclusion, health promotion, integration and education jointly invite you. Because we are convinced that diversity unites us.

Theatre Workshop “Secret Companions – Social Origin and Education”

Are you the first person in your family to go to university?

Does university sometimes seem like a place with a “foreign” language and unfamiliar manners?

Do you sometimes wonder how to behave in an unfamiliar (academic) world or how to deal with certain situations and experiences during your studies? 

Then we cordially invite you to our theatre workshop: “Secret companions – social background and education”.

The workshop is aimed at students without an academic family background and young people who have found their way to university via the second or third educational path or as first-time students from your family. The aim is to strengthen the self-confidence and the ability to act of students in this group and to find an easier way to deal with hurdles in everyday study life. The workshop uses playful elements of the theatre pedagogical approach to offer participants space for creative alternatives for action in their studies.

Date: 25.06.22, Saturday, 10.00 a.m. – 5.00 p.m.

Location: Kochstr. 6, 91054 Erlangen, PSG III, room 000.5

The workshop is held in German and free of charge.

Workshop leader: Harald Hahn, theatre pedagogue, lecturer and systemic consultant, more information on the speaker at: www.harald-hahn.de

We are looking forward to a lively participation and due to limited capacities we ask for a timely registration at the latest by 10.06.2022 via StudOn

Climate Camp Erlangen is looking for volunteers

🌻 Dear climate enthusiasts,
It’s that time again! 😊

⛺ The Climate Camp Erlangen will be set up again this summer! It is meant to be a place for people to come together, do activism, inform themselves about the climate crisis and network for several weeks. Our goal is to finally get the city of Erlangen to meet its climate goals.

At the same time, it should also be a safe place for everyone.
Therefore, we stand AGAINST any kind of discrimination, fascism, anti-Semitism, speciesism, sexism and patriarchy. We fight FOR a climate-just, inclusive, socially just and vegan future!✊
Assaults of any kind will not be tolerated at the climate camp.
To be able to organise this, we need your help!

Our first meeting took place on Tuesday 31 May, if you don’t want to miss the next meetings, follow / contact us on one of our platforms: Instagram: @klimacamp.erlangen, WhatsApp, Telegram, E-Mail

Facts about the 9€-ticket

We are happy that the 9€ ticket is available, because it also makes our semester ticket cheaper. But how is all this going to work? Here are the most important facts:

  • The 9€ ticket can be purchased in the months of June, July and August respectively- With it, we can travel 24/7 on regional trains throughout Germany (not ICE, IC or EC)
  • Our basic ticket will become a 9€ ticket, which means that we can travel 24/7 on regional trains throughout Germany with the basic ticket without having to purchase an additional ticket, so we can also travel to Sylt, for example 😉 – In the months of June, July and August
  • Since our basic fee is 12,50€ per month (75€/6 months), we have paid 3,50€ too much for three months each, so in total 10,50€
  • Since the basic ticket can be used all-around, the amount of the additional ticket is set to zero in the three months, which means half of the additional ticket is refunded (even if the additional ticket is purchased only now). Thus, the refund amount of the additional ticket is an additional 103,50€
  • Students with additional ticket will thus receive a total of 114€ back, but most likely in separate ways. Basic ticket and additional ticket will be handled separately – how the offsetting, voucher redemption or refund of the basic ticket looks like is not yet finally clarified. We hope to have a final solution by Friday
  • The refund of the additional ticket will probably go like this: For online purchases, an automatic refund to the deposited account; For vending machine purchases, you have to go to the customer center and submit a request. But here, too, the final solution will probably be communicated on Friday

We are currently also rebuilding our website, on which we also answer the most important questions: https://semesterticket.org/.
In order to get the semester ticket cheaper in the long run, the AK Semesterticket continues to collect signatures (we still need about 200 in Erlangen and 2,000 in Nuremberg).
