Salome joined querstadtein in March 2021, first as a federal volunteer and then as the Tour-coordinator. After her M.A. studies in Urban Design in Malaysia, she worked as city planner in her hometown Tehran. Through her interest in raising awareness between different groups of people and building a more inclusive society, she changed her filed of work and worked as the manager in a collective-led cultural project and later co-founded an educational travel start-up in Iran. After moving to Berlin, she continues to pursue this path with querstadtein.
Birte has been with querstadtein since autumn 2022 as a voluntary tour guide. More and more often she asked herself how people survive on the streets in general and women in particular. Where do you get clothes, sleeping bags, food? How do you protect yourself from the cold and attacks? The personal stories of the tour guides from querstadtein tell about it and that is very impressive. Because of this completely different perspective, parts of Berlin appear completely different.
Gesa has been a volunteer at querstadtein since 2023. She is in the final stages of her medical studies and is happy to support the association because the city tours give her a new perspective on her hometown. She wants to help so that as many people as possible can experience this broader perspective.
Philipp, is 27 years young and became a volunteer at querstadtein in summer 2022. He got to know the association three years ago during a educational trip and was very enthusiastic about the city tour. Now he moved to Berlin for his master’s degree and he is happy to be involved with querstadtein to gain valuable experience in political education work.
Marina (25) has been a volunteer at querstadtein since January 2023, mainly for the city tours “Living on the streets”. As a human geographer with an interest in sustainable urban development, she asks herself, how urban space is perceived, how it is divided, how it can be designed fairly and who is where and where not? At the same time, as a newcomer to Berlin, she noticed that there is a particularly large number of homeless people in this city. The exchange with the city guides made her question preconceived notions and gave her interesting, valuable insights. A chance for these learning experiences should be given to as many people as possible!
Andreas worked as a teacher at various schools in Berlin for five years and then dealt academically and professionally with the issues of educational equity and school development that is sensitive to discrimination. Through his second degree, he also has expertise in the areas of political education, education for sustainable development and global learning. In cooperation with our city guide Dieter, he designs school workshops on the subjects of homelessness and the human right to housing.
Verena has been a volunteer at querstadtein since the beginning of 2023. She mainly supports the acquisition of fundings for new projects. Until she left Berlin, she was part of the office team. She would also like to support querstadtein’s commitment to more social justice from afar. Verena continues to work in the education sector at a voluntary service provider in Brandenburg.
A few years ago, Fritzi moved to Berlin for political education. She is now studying for a master’s degree in “Urban Future” and is working on social architecture and discriminatory urban development, among other things. For Fritzi, the querstadtein tours are an active contribution to enabling an open space for exchange and creating meeting spaces. As part of the team, she will accompany the tours on a voluntary basis and help to develop new tours.
