Dear Funda,
Nr.91 is one of 6 open space events that have been organized once a
year over the last 5 years by a political foundation (Friedrich Ebert
Stiftung, they have offices also in Turkey, I am sure...as do other
political foundations, such as Heinrich Boell which is close to the
green party while Friedrich Ebert is close to the Social Democrats).
The main theme is "Youth in violence-free space" and has a different
subtitle each year, the one for 2004 which just took place (115, no
pictures yet) had the subtitle "bullying in schools and
neighborhood...we are active against it"....the one last year had the
subtitle "A rainbow needs all colors - more transcultural
collaboration as a chance for the schools in our city" (Nr.106)
...there are some pictures there.
Applications for these events are between 350 and 500 a year, the
space is really booked out with 350...thats how many we had this
year...half adults (teachers, police, social workers, scientists,
mediators, conflict specialists, politicians, neighborhood
organisations......)and the other half school children aged 10
through 16.

Nr. 96 was an event organized by the Catholic Dioces of
Augsburg...there are two sets of pictures. "Veranstaltung" means
pictures of the event itself with 200 youth workers, including
priests, nuns, social workers, Deacons, parish consultants,
educators...and a few youth. All catholic except for one 16 year old
student who came up to me and in a low voice said to me (I had outed
myself as a protestant): "I sneaked into here as a protestant, only
my best friends know".
The second set of pictures "Nachtreffen" shows pictures from a follow
up meeting 8 months later with some 50 participants reflecting on
what had happened in the meantime and planning further action.

By the way, the picture of the circles of chairs (200 of them) that
you see there went onto the cover of an open space article my
colleague Jo Toepfer wrote for the Leadership Handbook of the German
Red Cross. You can have a look at it at
http://www.joconsult.de/os/was/Augen_auf.html
there you can see the text.
If you click on "hier" at the uppermost item at the menu at right,
the article comes up and you can download it as pdf.
Of course, its in German.

Greetings from Berlin
