26th Annual Intercultural Days
from September 18 to October 2, 2016
Live together with diversity.
Dear People of Dresden,
Dear Guests of our city,
The integration of people from other cultures consists of every area
of daily life: education, work, social security, family, health, culture,
law, politic and ecology. And only when everyone in Dresden knows
they are responsible and do their part can integration in our city
work. So, how do we begin?
In the way we deal with it. Through dealing with it people receive
faces, which reflect memories and wishes. Through dealing with it,
refugees become people from our community. That helps us break
down prejudices. And for that, the 26th Annual Intercultural Days
Dresden offers a large array of possibilities: at the festive opening
ceremonies, or at the intercultural street festival, in talks and dis­
cussion rounds, at breakfast or with music. People of Dresden with
differing backgrounds and religions invite us to get to know their
culture. We accept their invitation. The exceedingly diverse program
gives every individual a reason to take a step toward each other. I
would like to cordially encourage all of you to do this.
To those in our city, who have already taken the first step with
enthusiasm and commitment, who have taken care of both the big
and little worries of people who have come for various reasons and
have taken assorted routes to reach our country, I give my personal
thanks.
Dirk Hilbert
Mayor of the
City of Dresden

Dear People of Dresden,
Dear Guests of our city,
We welcome you to numerous cultural exchange events which
are offered again this year under the motto “Live Together with
Diversity”. To build bridges between cultures and to create some­
thing new is the central thematic point of our, now, 26th annual
series of events. The festival offers numerous possibilities for parti­
cipation for new and old people of Dresden. Involvement destroys
inhibitions and makes trust possible. Now, in a time in which the
city unifies numerous different opinions about “Asylum as a Human
Right”, such “get to know you” platforms are very important.
Since 2015 we have been able to greet a lot of new residents in
Dresden, who, since then have greatly enriched our social and cul­
tural exchange. Many volunteers, NGOs, initiatives and insti tutions
have taken on the civil work of developing worthy integration
projects. Get to know these organizations and visit the numerous
cultural events.
We wish you an interesting encounter with the diverse population
of our city and are happy to greet you at the 26th Annual Intercul­
tural Days.
