For an open conference format YMCA Görlitz, Tierra Eine Welt e.V. and the TRAWOS Institute at the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences invited committed stakeholders and innovative projects from the region to the Wartburg Youth Center in Görlitz from 9-10 October 2015 , thus providing space and time for an exchange of experiences and visions, a joint search for solutions and the use of synergy effects.
The 50 participants decided for themselves which topics and issues they wanted to discuss in the various panel sessions.
We started together on Friday, 9.10.15, 19:00 with the film "Wir könnten auch anders" by Daniel Kunle and Holger Lauinger, followed by a discussion with the documentary filmmaker Holger Lauinger.
On Saturday between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m., the actual Barcamp took place with 4x4 workshop panels of 60 minutes each, in which various panels were initiated on topics of sharing and swapping, car sharing, structural change after lignite, regional money or solidarity farming and mental infrastructures for the change towards a post-growth society at local level.
Finally, on Sunday, the Senckenberg Museum of Natural History in Görlitz hosted a fair breakfast with a guided tour of the exhibition "Coffee. A global success".
