Active Hope in Freiburg: Together from Crisis to Empowerment
How can we consciously perceive global crises without sinking into despair or powerlessness? The interactive lecture Active Hope: How We Can Face Crises with Resilience and Creativity invites you to an open evening with impulses, exchange, and discussion in Freiburg on Friday, October 16, 2026.
Resilience and Creative Power at the Center
The focus is on the method The Work That Reconnects, based on the approaches of Joanna Macy and others. The evening highlights ways to acknowledge, categorize, and develop new empowerment from difficult feelings in light of the current global situation.
Rather than ignoring crises or being overwhelmed by them, the lecture opens a safe space for reflection and encounter. The atmosphere is energized by shared exchange: personal perspectives, societal questions, and creative approaches engage with one another.
Interactive Lecture with Discussion
Robert Matovinovic from the project Place of One's Own Power conveys the fundamentals of the Active Hope approach and leads through an event experience that combines information and participation. The format is suitable for people who engage with mental health, social responsibility, resilience, and sustainable commitment.
The event planning focuses on dialogue rather than frontal instruction. This creates an immediate event atmosphere where questions can be raised and new perspectives can emerge. Registration via email is recommended.
An Evening in the Context of World Mental Health Week
The event is part of World Mental Health Week. The organizer is the Community Psychiatric Network Freiburg with the Psychiatric Coordination. The venue is Schwere(s)Los e. V. in Freiburg. The access is wheelchair accessible.
Conclusion: Understanding Crises and Discovering Empowerment
Active Hope connects professional impulse, personal reflection, and collective conversation. Visitors can expect a calm yet stimulating evening about resilience, creativity, and the question of how new orientation can emerge from difficult feelings. Those who do not want to consider crises in solitude but wish to gain new perspectives through exchange will experience a special evening in Freiburg.
