Stand for Health Equity: Volunteer with MediNetz Aachen

 

Germany is well known for its healthcare system but did you know that there are still people without access to medical treatment? This issue concerns various groups of patients, such as those who can no longer afford private insurance, people without a permanent residence or refugees without residency permits.

 

MediNetz Aachen e.V. is dedicated to providing medical care regardless of the patients financial and legal situation - because they believe that health is a human right! They operate donation-based and connect patients in need with doctors who are voluntary willing to help and do the medical examination for free.

 

So if you are interested in assessing the needs of clients and referring them to appropriate specialists, coordinating appointments, getting involved in local politics, advocating for those who are overlooked by society, or introducing your own ideas, feel warmly welcome to visit one of their plenary meetings! They are looking forward to getting to know you and answering any questions you might have.

And very important: You dont have to study medicine to join them :)

 

Dancing at Elisenbrunnen

 

Elisenbrunnen is known for being a historic sight in Aachen or for many people its just the place with the special smell. However, its more than that. Almost every week people are coming together to dance from various organizations or clubs. Generally, you can participate for free or for a small fee of 1euro and the best part is, you dont need any prior experience. Youll find dance sessions for:

  • Lindy Hop: 05.08., 19.08. (7:30 to 10:00 pm)
  • Tango: 11.08., 25.08. (6:00 to 10:00 pm)
  • Salsa: 04.08., 18.22.08. & 18.08. (12:30pm to 5:30 pm)
  • West Coast Swing: 10.08. (6:00 to10:00 pm)

 

A space to study

 

Long queues in front of the libraries and nothing for free, you can tell it's exam season in Aachen. This also means finding a place where you can study comfortably and occasionally meet up to discuss learning materials together. The AStA has compiled a list of rooms that can be used for studying during the summer semester. Feel free to check it out.

 

Disk Twiddling

Every first Wednesday of the month, Hochschulradio Aachen invites you to a regular meetup (Stammtisch- Scheibenreiben) at Dumont in Frankenberger. With a cold drink of choice, they listen to music, spin some tracks and enjoy the time together.

Date: 7th of August, 21pm

 

Filmstudio - Problemista (OmU)

Teaser: Alejandro faces deportation from the US while struggling to succeed as a toy designer; working as an assistant to an eccentric artist may be his last hope to pursue his dream.

Kimiko- Isle of Art

And again - A festival! This time the Kimiko will take place in the backyard of Ludwigs Forum, offering a completely different and more private vibe compared to June on the Campus Melaten. Take a look to check out the lineup.
