Listening and Speaking in Bielefeld: Dialogue, Perspective Shift and True Togetherness

How do people experience their coexistence in the neighborhood? The dialogue evening Listening and Speaking focuses not on discussions or persuasion but on personal experiences, mutual attention, and respectful exchange.
