4) Read your short story to little children at the Day of Integration, Sept 2

The Day of Integration takes place once a year with diverse, cultural performances, sports demonstrations, and presentations in Aachen. The hosts are the initiatives, associations, institutions, and companies from Aachen and the surrounding area.

Related to the Day of Integration (2nd September 2018 in Aachen), the International Office would like to participate by reading short stories to little children. That's why we're looking for students who would like to contribute with a little country-specific story, which will be read by them in both their mother tongue and German. It can be fairytales, legends, or also informative texts (appropriate to children), so be creative. In the halls of Eurogress, where the Day of Integration will take place, there will be a little separated area, which will provide more silence to read. These stories will be read hourly, each hour with a different story in a different language, starting from 12 o'clock.

Should you be interested, you are welcome to leave Ms. Tamara Weber a message with the story (or at least the topic it will be about) and the language you will read it in.

5) AEGEE Open Talk:  Social Media - When did we decide to give up our privacy? (Aug 13)

The open talk is a new event by AEGEE-Aachen that will provide a space for international and local students to meet and share ideas in small groups. The members of a group can decide whether they want to discuss in German or English.

Topic of the day: When was the last time you were happy that youtube recommended you an interesting video? Have you ever wondered why amazon knows your wishes better than you? Social Media has many aspects that can influence our daily life. We want to discuss the chances and risks of our digital life with you!

When: Aug 13 (Monday), 6.30-8.45 pm

Where: Café Bar Zuhause

Afterwards you are all welcome to come along for our weekly members meeting at "Café und Bar Zuhause"!

Have a nice weekend,
