Das Hallo Projekt is an initiative from Munich that was created in April 2018. It promotes
intergenerational and intercultural exchange between senior citizens and immigrants and actively
helps to overcome the loneliness of both groups.
Through our group activities, we bring both groups together to get to know each other, to exchange ideas and to break down prejudice. Our activities take place after office hours, as well as on weekends, which allows working immigrants to participate as well. The activities take place only in German and in a pleasant and trusting environment, so that immigrants can use their German skills without fear of making mistakes. Here all participants support and help each other.
The goal is for immigrants to get to know each other better, exchange tips and
information about life in Germany, and not only help each other but also make
friends.
