Emergent Berlin 2025 “Reclamation” :: June 13 – 15
Is this the better world we’ve been looking for? Show up and share your plans to make the world a better place at the Emergent Berlin festival!
Since 2013, Baumhaus Berlin has brought together local initiatives, organizations, and neighbors who are ready to shape a more sustainable future with personal, ecological, aesthetic, cultural, economic and social perspectives (p.e.a.c.e.s.). 🌱 Submit your idea for a contribution!
2025 Theme: RECLAMATION – Reclaiming the Narrative & Our Agency
We believe it’s time to redefine the story—our story. This year, we’re turning Emergent Berlin into a Super Hero Training Camp to equip ourselves with the tools, perspectives, and community support to make real change. More than ever, Berlin needs a sense of unity, shared purpose, and the belief that we can move things forward together. 🌱 Submit your idea for a contribution!
