Come join Us At The “Ehrentag” 2026

“For you. For us. For everyone.” This is the motto under which the National Day of Recognition (Ehrentag) is being held for the first time this year. Initiated by Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, we will be celebrating social cohesion and community spirit in Germany on May 23rd!

Why are we participating?

Together, we want to create a just world worth living in. To achieve this, we want to hear your perspectives and generate new ideas.

What is it about?
