GEORG has talent. GEORG awakens talent. GEORG is the mental training that prepares us for a life together. GEORG laughs. GEORG smiles. And GEORG pulls no punches. Where GEORG is, everyone, with or without disabilities, can meet. GEORG meets everyone’s needs. Because GEORG is a kiosk.

​

Many people live with disabilities that, on a day to day basis, push them to the edge of society. They have many abilities, some just as good as other people’s, some even better. And some specific abilities are missing, and this means that, despite their talents, they have no chance on the primary labour market. Or they are considered to be too “quirky”, so that they live amongst us without being fully included. GEORG knows about this. He is familiar with the feeling of existing physically but being ignored. GEORG is all those who want to be a part of society. And GEORG is also those given the chance to find out if they want to be a part of society.

​

Is it annoying if people with disabilities suddenly become visible? Who is annoyed? Who decides who should live among their “own kind” instead of having a face and a voice as a part of a community? GEORG does not decide. GEORG is here – that’s all. GEORG is diversity. And GEORG is not perfect. He keeps on learning all the time. But there is one thing GEORG is really good at: he is tolerant. He accepts people’s uniqueness. GEORG knows we are the others. The others are also us, because people cannot be standardised.

​

GEORG is a role model for all of us. That is why he welcomes visitors from everywhere. GEORG takes community literally – with deeds, not just with promises. Georg encourages community feeling in the neighbourhood, and at the junction between the city centre and the “Drei Weieren”. Only together can we fulfil our goals.  You are also GEORG. Welcome to the upper terminus.
