Initiative Respekt! Time for Diversity, Time for Sustainability

The International Centre for Sustainable Development (IZNE) is organising a banner exhibition on the topic "Climate Factor Human" in the library from 10 to 28 October. The library is putting together a media table to go with it. Take a look!

The initiative "Respekt!" was awarded the first Integration Prize of the Rhein-Sieg-Kreis in the category Preventive Measures.

3 December is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. The global campaign "Purple Light Up" wants to set an example: In the course of the campaign, many buildings, but also digital spaces, will shine in purple light. Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences was also taking part - in the form of a video.

The winners of the photo competition "Respekt! at H-BRS means to me..." have been determined.

As part of the "Respekt!" initiative, the equality body supported the campaign "Pencils make girls strong". By recycling pencils, the grassroots movement Women’s World Day of Prayer Germany provided resources for a team of teachers and psychologists who enabled 200 Syrian girls (and also some boys) to attend school in a refugee camp in Lebanon. At H-BRS about 38 kg of material was collected! The campaign was successfully completed in January 2019 with the total collection of 23 tonnes empty pencils and a fundraising sum of 33,000 Euros.

31 May 2022 was German Diversity Day. To mark the occasion, the Initiative Respekt! of the H-BRS prepared something special for you: the Respekt! sock challenge.
