About Decolonize Berlin

Decolonize Berlin’s coordination office has been located at the Decolonize Berlin association since May 2020. It was set up after the Berlin House of Representatives decided in 2019 to develop a city-wide concept for dealing with and remembering the history and consequences of colonialism in the state of Berlin (DS 18/1788).

The coordination office team organizes decolonization measures in Berlin together with civil society, administration and politics. All those involved are involved and networked. The coordination office also supports the work of associations and alliances.
