city anniversaries as an opportunity for the community

city anniversaries are much more than festivities on historical milestones - they offer the opportunity to actively promote urban development and to develop a vision for future development. In this context, Christoph Thoma emphasizes that citizen participation is essential. Participatory approaches such as workshops and public forums enable citizens to actively contribute to the planning and implementation of the anniversary. A well-structured communication strategy is essential so that everyone involved is transparently informed Culture Lab .

The preparations for city anniversaries should be designed in the long term. A lead time of 3 to 5 years is recommended to learn from the experiences of other cities and to avoid any errors. This not only celebrates the current occasion, but sustainable projects can also be developed that extend beyond the anniversary year and further improve the quality of life in Zeiskam.
