Diaspora Civică Berlin envisions a society in which citizens, wherever they live, take responsibility for shaping the future through civic engagement, democratic participation and solidarity. We want a diaspora that connects Romania, Germany and Europe through trust, cooperation and the exchange of ideas, contributing to stronger, more open, equitable and resilient societies. We believe that civic engagement today can bring about lasting change for the generations to come.

The mission of Diaspora Civică Berlin is to support the Romanian community in Berlin in becoming better informed, better connected and more involved in civic and democratic life.

We set out to build spaces for dialogue, learning and collaboration, to promote civic participation, and to represent the voice of the community in its relationship with relevant institutions and partners.

At the same time, we aim to address the community’s interests in dialogue with authorities and partners in Romania and Germany, and we develop projects that respond to needs identified together with the community. We believe that a strong community is built through engagement, trust and collaboration.
