BAKU: German community integration project wins UN intercultural innovation award
26 April 2016 – A project platform and network that makes social engagement and neighbourhood work accessible to Berlin’s large non-German speaking population – winner of an intercultural innovation award at a United Nations forum in Baku today – was sparked by one woman’s own migrant experience and the rise of xenophobia in Europe.
Three years after its inception, Give Something Back to Berlin – or GSBTB – is now well-known in Europe. It was declared the winner during an award ceremony as part of the Global Forum Baku 2016, held in the Azerbaijani capital and convened by the UN Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC).
