Our neighborhood center is called ‘Staakentreff Obstallee’. It is located in the heart of the ‘Heerstraße Nord’ high-rise housing estate on the western outskirts of Berlin. The residents are very committed, multicultural, relatively young, and low-income. Our building has various counseling services: Social counseling, tenancy law counseling, migration counseling, etc. Various groups also meet on the premises: language learning courses, neighborhood café, tenant initiatives, Arabic lessons, women’s groups, etc. In addition, we work in and with the neighborhood on its issues as part of our community work: Littering, problems with deaf people, housing problems, racism, (international) meeting opportunities, intercultural festivals, exercise programs, etc.
We always try to give residents an active role and encourage them to organize themselves.
