The Intercultural Days offer space for encounters, exchange and opportunities to gain new perspectives, learn from each other, break down one’s own prejudices and thus enrich social interaction in the long term.
Our events as part of Intercultural Days
The Commissioner for Integration and Foreigners Kristina Winkler and the Ausländerrat Dresden e. V. are pleased that over 200 events are offered. These include concerts, lectures, craft or reading afternoons for children and families, exhibitions or film screenings followed by discussions and much more.

Why are there Intercultural Days in Dresden?
Dresden is a diverse and cosmopolitan city. With the Intercultural Days, we want to emphasise this diversity and promote mutual understanding between all residents, regardless of their appearance, origin or religion. With the help of numerous events, the aim is to create opportunities for encounters and joint organisation, to create cooperation at eye level and to strengthen the reduction of prejudices. The Intercultural Days offer numerous actors from Dresden the opportunity to present themselves and their offers and thus preserve the openness and diversity of Dresden.
