Intercultural Week
Intercultural Week
The Intercultural Week is an initiative of the German Bishops' Conference, the Protestant Church in Germany and the Greek Orthodox Metropolis. Every year since 1975, it has been supported and sponsored by churches, local authorities, charities, trade unions, migrant organisations, associations, religious communities and initiative groups throughout Germany. Since 2020, the district has been responsible for coordinating the Intercultural Week in Waldeck-Frankenberg in cooperation with the Network for Tolerance. Each year, it is organised jointly with a different partner city.
In 2022, the host town of Bad Wildungen showed how #open works. In 2023, the Intercultural Week took place in Bad Arolsen under the motto "New Spaces - Bad Arolsen Naturally Diverse". In 2024, the district of Waldeck-Frankenberg celebrated its 50th anniversary. In 2025, the town of Frankenberg (Eder), the district of Waldeck-Frankenberg and the Network for Tolerance are sending a strong signal for diversity, tolerance and cohesion with the motto "For this!".
