Mobility Week!
European Mobility Week — what is it?
From September 16 — 22, 2021, European Mobility Week will take place, in 2021 already for the 19th time. In addition to numerous actions in European cities, Wiesbaden will participate with its own actions. In addition, the city of Wiesbaden has compiled many good suggestions for more sustainable action with the campaign "frischer Wind für Wiesbaden" (fresh wind for Wiesbaden) and has long been committed to nature conservation and environmental protection. The title says it all: Wiesbaden is becoming active for cleaner air and on the occasion of the European Mobility Week, the Museum Wiesbaden is also happy to participate with its own idea. We call on all visitors:inside to come to the museum this week by public transport, by bike or on foot. "Leave your car at home!" If you show us with your ticket or bicycle helmet that you arrived without a car, you will receive reduced admission to the museum's permanent exhibitions during European Mobility Week.
The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) are part of the United Nations' 2030 Agenda. They were ratified by the member states of the United Nations in 2015.
Uff hessisch are listed in the following link the specific goals (incl. High German translation):
...Dr. Andreas Henning, director of the Museum Wiesbaden, is convinced of this. The Museum Wiesbaden takes sustainability very seriously and examines its activities from this perspective, with sustainability playing a role in all its ecological, economic and educational dimensions. Museum Wiesbaden is committed to climate protection for the very reason that, as a two-division house, it is also home to nature. "We are therefore very pleased to announce that we have been selected as a pilot project for the sustainability strategy of the state of Hesse 'CO2-neutral state administration'. Together with the Hessian Ministry of Finance and the Landesbetrieb Bau und Immobilien Hessen, we will be preparing a climate audit for the first time this year. The goal is to make the Wiesbaden Museum climate neutral."
Students of the "Digital Management" course at the Fresenius University of Applied Sciences, under the leadership of Anke Trischler, Chairwoman of the Sustainable Business Committee of the Wiesbaden Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and fellow campaigners Sophie Rieke and Stefanie Nix Bambaren, will present their 17 international Sustainable Development Goals (SDG‘s), which have been translated into Hessian and printed on beer mats, at several levels.
Dr. Christian Gastl, President of the Wiesbaden Chamber of Industry and Commerce, is this year's patron of the SDG campaign and emphasizes: "Each of us can take responsibility for a better future in our everyday lives. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals are a strong guiding principle for this. People need to be aware of them in order for them to have an impact, and we can achieve this with a variety of approaches. The creative coaster campaign communicates the big goals with ease.
Our IHK Sustainable Business Committee provides companies with a quick introduction to this topic with a compact tool, the "Navigator for Sustainable Business". And the Museum Wiesbaden uses the great energy and inspirational power of art to bring sustainable thinking and action to the public. The diversity of the projects is a key to the common goal."
Museum Wiesbaden linked International Museum Day in May 2021 with the 100th birthday of Joseph Beuys, one of the most influential German artists of the second half of the 20th century. Beuys dealt with ecological issues early on and sought ways for society to actively incorporate nature conservation. He was convinced that the activity to do so must come from each and every individual: "The future we want must be invented. Otherwise we will get one we don't want" (Joseph Beuys). On the occasion of the International Museum Day 2021, the Museum Wiesbaden combines this sentence on a giant banner with the 17 Sustainability Goals. In this way, the museum wants to remind itself again and again of this important task.
