Background

The Brandenburg Women’s Week has a long tradition and focuses on the goals and tasks of women’s political work. To this end, lectures, workshops as well as social, cultural and sporting events take place in Brandenburg an der Havel.

Goal

Raise awareness about the positive contribution that girls and women made to advance the topic of gender equality.

Measure

As part of the 30th Brandenburg Women’s Week, a tram was introduced in February 2020 under the motto “Back to the Future”, depicting girls and women who have advanced the topic of gender equality in the past and in modern times. In addition, a brochure provides insights into the women’s biographies.
