ToleranzRäume (Eng.: ToleranceSpaces) are colourful exhibition containers placed in the heart of German municipalities. Their goal: to open up new perspectives to the audience, both on the topic of tolerance as well as specifically on the living environments of others. Because empathy grows from understanding. Understanding is the basis of mutual respect.
The ToleranzRäume project is implemented by the association Toleranz-Tunnel e.V. together with the Kreuzberg Initiative against Anti-Semitism (KIgA e.V.). Bielefeld University (Faculty of Education; AG10) furnishes scientific support for the project. In addition, an eight-member expert advisory board provides the project with consultation and support.
