FESTIVAL MAINSTAGE
🗓 The Visionary Bureaucracy: Boring, Female, Expansive, Cross-Border | English (Thu, 2 June, 13:00 – 13:50 CEST)
A selection of visions for redesigned public institutions that truly work for all people and the planet.
- Indy Johar from Dark Matter Labs explores how a ‘boring revolution’ of bureaucracies could ensure a great deceleration in fossil resource consumption and safeguard our planet.
- As a female politician under the age of thirty, Djuna Bernard has a wealth of experience navigating the outdated power structures of public institutions. She shares her vision for more equal, feminist, modern and approachable party politics and administrations.
- To address complex challenges, policy makers need to embrace a more expansive way of thinking. Christian Bason, a leading authority on innovation and design for government, shares six “expansions” every bureaucrat should have in their toolbox.
- How can we support more cross-border collaboration to save the planet? The global CivTech Alliance has explored just that, championing the powerful notion of ‘innovation diplomacy’ to advance climate tech solutions.
🗓 The Inclusive Bureaucracy: A Majority of Minorities | German (Thu, 2 June, 16:00 – 16:50 CEST)
A journey to resilient, gender equitable, inclusive, modern places that put people first.
- Noemi David & Nina Oltmanns from PD will guide you safely through the jungle of subsidies and show solution paths based on their German Structure and Resilience Plan.
- Eva Kail presents how Vienna has taken a new path in urban planning for 30 years. In Sharing the City Fairly – Gender Planning as a Strategic Approach we fade out the primarily male view of planners and instead focus on everyday contexts of many groups.
- In Cities for All – Inclusion in Erlangen, Schila Nemeth-Heim takes us on a barrier-free excursion for more participation and a better urban society.
- The Summer of Pioneers: Coworking and Coliving at Blumenfeld Castle with Frederik Fischer and Marian Schreier invites creatives and digital workers to live in the countryside for six months – including an all-round carefree package of furnished apartments and a coworking space.

PD With Strong Themes
Excited and full of anticipation, our main festival partner PD – Germany’s 100 percent state-owned publoic consulting company – is also looking forward to the 2 June. In 12 sessions across the mainstage, seminars, bowl discussions, and networking lounge, PD colleagues and clients will share best practices and spark exchange on exciting future topics. Such topics range from digitalisation and organisational culture to housing and funding management to the environment, mobility and energy.
“Citizens and companies rightly place high demands on an efficient and modern public administration,” explains Stéphane Beemelmans, Managing Director of PD. “The projects that we will present together with our clients at the festival day on June 2 show an administration in transition. Given the many innovative and creative solutions our clients have found in collaboration with public and private partners, I am happy to say: We are on a good path together.”
