Gülcan Nitsch | Wir – Gespräche zum demokratischen Alltag in Berlin
Gülcan Nitsch talks about her educational background and her work in environmental protection. A biologist and daughter of Turkish immigrants, Nitsch became interested in sustainability early on and got involved in various environmental organisations before founding Berlin’s first Turkish-language environmental group. In her work, Nitsch combines nature conservation and migrant civil society and advocates for a holistic understanding of the world.
Wir – Gespräche zum demokratischen Alltag in Berlin
Germany’s official reunification on 3rd October 1990 was the final act of a broad democratic awakening in the GDR, which saw mass mobilisations in Leipzig, East Berlin and elsewhere. The date also marked the end of the division of Berlin. Thirty years later, a video project by Berlin artist Sonya Schönberger introduces people who are working for democracy in Berlin today.
