Network for cultural and youth work Chemnitz invites you to participate tomorrow in the LAP project for the local elections
Information from the Coordination Centre on the Local Action Plan for Democracy, Tolerance and a Cosmopolitan Chemnitz (LAP)
Supported by the Local Action Plan for Democracy, Tolerance and a Cosmopolitan Chemnitz (LAP), the Netzwerk für Kultur- und Jugendarbeit Chemnitz e. V. has prepared a project on Chemnitz's local elections for tomorrow Friday (16 May) and is inviting young Chemnitz residents in particular to get actively involved: "On 16 May, Chemnitz children, young people and first-time voters will have the chance to find out all about local elections in Chemnitz and also to try them out," says LAP coordinator Ines Vorsatz about the project. Understanding politics, recognising differences, questioning promises - this is what is on offer in youth facilities, at schools and also on the move. For example, it will deal with the question of how the election works, what a ballot paper looks like, how many crosses you are allowed to make, how the distribution of seats for the city council is determined and also what election promises the parties make.
The polling stations for the campaign, which will only take place tomorrow Friday, can be found online here: https://www.facebook.com/events/668949576473859 and at www.jugendkulturbox.de
