The urban diversity made of work, culture, and living needs to be preserved and designed. Focus is placed on the areas light, green, and design of urban space. Since the establishment, the Foundation has initiated and supported numerous best-practice projects with an overall volume of around 25 million euros. Minister Presidents, lord mayors, CEOs, scientists, and leading cultural figures have been contributing to this on part of the Foundation. Apart from its function as project promoter, the Foundation understands itself as initiator by supporting the exchange of knowledge and experiences between the cities. The Foundation contributes with its annual conferences to current urban problems and with its annual thematically changing Foundation Award, with which innovative ideas and concepts with particular cultural and artistic value are honored, to the exchange of know-how between local political decision-makers and draws attention to best-practice examples. Furthermore, the Foundation reports in its Foundation Journal, which is published two times a year, and in its publication series about diverse and interesting issues in the cities. The event takes place with the support of the German Association of Cities and Towns. © Foto: Klaus Grobler 011 2 , 9 R E B M Y NOVE A D S E N D E DAY 1 | W Y T I C E U Q I N U E TH E M O H – Y T I T N BRAND – IDE WA R D PR TION A A D N U O F E H OF T E S E N TAT I O N THE FOUNDATION AWARD Once a year, the “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation honors in changing categories projects in cities and municipalities with best-practice character and which are recommended for imitation. At the beginning of each year, the Foundation calls for entries by cities, municipalities, institutes, universities, associations, and private persons for its Europe-wide competition. A jury with independent experts assesses the applications and selects the winner. In the past, prizes and acknowledgements were awarded for particularly innovative and successful concepts in museums, inner-city residences, sports facilities or playgrounds and leisure areas. 2011 – DIE UNIQUE CITY: BRAND – IDENTITY – HOME This year, the Foundation was looking for concepts and projects that give cities or communities – but also their districts, quarters or major areas – an own, unique identity, that raise a high sense of identification and the feeling of home in the citizens or that even make them a brand. Decisive were also aspects of maintenance and financial viability. We are talking about projects that have already been realized or are about to be implemented in the near future and that could serve as model for other cities and municipalities.

PETER MAFFAY FOUNDATION Aid project “Fortress Radeln – Shelter for children” The musician Peter Maffay creates a refuge for traumatized children with his foundation in the Rumanian village Radeln in Siebenbürgen in which 700 inhabitants live. In a first step, the vicarage and the adjoining buildings are renovated. In the therapeutic holiday home, up to 14 children with physical and mental problems will find shelter for around 2 weeks together with their supervisors. However, it will be an international place of encounters. Apart from children from Rumania also children from abroad will be hosted. Model is the holiday home which the Peter Maffay foundation established on Mallorca. Radeln is characterized by migration, unemployment, poverty, insufficient infrastructure, and lack of perspectives. At the same time, it incorporates great potentials due to its wonderful landscape and untouched nature. Apart from the construction of the holiday home, the renovation of the fortress as protection-worthy cultural heritage is planned. This is to send the sign for the reconstruction of their village to the citizens of Radeln. Among others, the supply and disposal system and medical support need an extensive and intensive general overhaul. The “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation supports this project of the Peter Maffay foundation.

Decisions are becoming more and more complex, approval procedures take more and more time and imponderables are continuously increasing.

The participants include numerous lord mayors, mayors, ministers, and other local representatives from many European countries as well as board members of leading companies.

Our objective is to play an active role in shaping the future of our towns and cities – by promoting cultural life and through science and research, the conservation of cultural values and the preservation of protected buildings. Our cities provide people with places to live and places to work – and should be alive with trade and cultural activity. Our aim is to preserve the variety and diversity. For ourselves and for our children. The non-profit “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation has taken up this challenge. FOUNDATION AWARD Once a year, the Foundation calls for entries for its competition. PAST AWARD-WINNERS Illumination: Michael Batz 2010 Arnsberg as most senior-friendly city 2009 Griesheim in Hessen for its child-friendly mobility concept 2008 The “Grünmarkt” in Nienburg an der Weser as Europe’s most attractive weekly market 2007 “Parkgarage P23” in Amsterdam as Europe’s best parking concept 2006 The Georg-Freundorfer-Platz square in Munich as the best playground and leisure area 2005 The “Funbox Amalie” trend sports hall in Essen and the “Schule am Mummelsoll” school in Berlin as the most innovative sports venues 2004 The “Heslach House of Generations” in Stuttgart as the best inner-city residential concept 2003 Chemnitz Art Gallery as the best museum concept 2002 The “Innenhafen Duisburg Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH” company for the redevelopment of industrial city districts and brownfield sites 2001 The “Platz der Einheit” square in Potsdam for exemplary square design EXAMPLES OF SUPPORTED PROJECTS: “CAPITAL OF BIODIVERSITY” COMPETITION In 2010, the Foundation was staging together with the Deutsche Umwelthilfe environmental protection organization the “Capital of Biodiversity” competition, which was part of the international “Capital of Biodiversity” project that took place at the same time in France, Spain, Hungary, and Slovakia. The goal was to identify the city that makes particular efforts to preserve and promote the diversity of ecosystems and species. Related was the aim to motivate relevant actors in the cities and municipalities to undertake greated efforts and to implement specific measures regarding the protection of nature and biodiversity. Nearly 900 projects were submitted in a total of six categories and assessed by a project-accompanying specialized working group. The German competition was won by Hannover; the city mad biodiversity to one of its basic urban development targets reflected by numerous activities, which means that those efforts were not only shown in one district. 13 other municipalities were honored for their efforts undertaken for the conservation of a versatile nature. STIFTUNGSPREIS REDESIGN OF THE ST. NIKOLAI CHURCH COURTYARD IN LEIPZIG With the support of the “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation, the historic courtyard in front of the St. Nikolai church has been transformed into a place of peaceful reflection. The centerpieces of the redesigned courtyard are the light installation of the Leipzig-based Tilo Schulz and a granite fountain designed by David Chipperfield. The fountain operates year-round and creates a setting for communication and an oasis of tranquility. The light installation with its 150 colored “illuminated cobblestones” symbolizes the gradual build-up of peaceful gatherings like the famous “Monday demonstrations” that took place in Leipzig in 1989. ARTISTIC ILLUMINATION OF THE REICHSTAG To mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany, a permanent, artistically designed lighting concept was installed at the Reichstag building in Berlin on the initiative of the “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation. The central idea of the winning design concept is to incorporate all four sides of the building, and the special architectural features of the façade are bathed in a tranquil, restrained, classic, and elegant light. In addition, the use of new technology significantly reduces the energy consumption. G “LEBENDI E S TA DT ” ION FO U N DAT N O N O I T A M R I N FO N O I T A D N U O F THE AFFILIATED ASSOCIATIONS PUBLICATION SERIES LEBENDIGER JUNGFERNSTIEG E.V. VOLUME 1 The Foundation initiated and promoted the redesign of the Jungfernstieg in Hamburg. Therefore, the Foundation called for entries for a nation-wide competition. The result is a generously dimensioned system of steps across the full width of the Jungfernstieg, extending down to the water. Thanks to the tribune-like shape of the new pier with movable benches, the Alster can be turned into a stage for cultural events of any kind. In front of the steps is a boulevard with a staggered three-axis silver linden avenue. With the aim to redesign the Jungfernstieg and based on the reason not to finance the redevelopment from public funds alone, a joint initiative of the “Lebendige Stadt” Foundation and the City of Hamburg led to the establishment of the “Förderverein Lebendiger Jungfernstieg e.V.” [friends of the “Jungfernstieg”] by prominent Hamburg citizens in the summer of 2002. In-depth consultation at the earliest possible stage with all the relevant decision-makers and the parties directly affected by redevelopment works played a key role in the implementation and success of this large-scale project. The redevelopment of the Jungfernstieg completed in summer 2006 is a best practice example that serves as model for other cities and municipalities. www.lebendiger-jungfernstieg.de City Squares in Lyon – Strategies for Developing Outdoor Areas in Inner Cities: Parameters for a Vibrant City Based on the Example of Modern, Metropolitan Square Design VOLUME 2 The Green Belt in Frankfurt, City of Frankfurt – Environmental Office VOLUME 3 The Humane Market Economy – Entrepreneurs Take on Responsibility VOLUME 4 City by the Water – New Opportunities for Municipalities and Tourism VOLUME 5 Urban Redevelopment – Grasping Opportunities to Create the City of the Future VOLUME 6 Public Space – Public Relations VOLUME 7 Green – Nature and City – Structure Development Strategies for Planning and Designing Urban Open Space LICHT-KUNST-SPEICHERSTADT E.V.
