Campaign for social cohesion in Saxony

Before the state election - Campaign for social cohesion in Saxony

A broad coalition of Economy, Culture and Sport is campaigning in Saxony for social cohesion and high participation in the state parliament election on September 1st. In the face of increasing social division, the organizers in Dresden want to set a sign for more togetherness and focus on the positive that Saxony has achieved since reunification.

In the weeks leading up to the election, the campaign "#staystable" will be present with striking motifs throughout the entire free state – on posters in public spaces, in advertisements, at events, in social media and elsewhere.

The initiators include the communications agency Oberüber Karger, Volkswagen Saxony, the L-Group, Konsum Leipzig, Fahrrad XXL, MEDIA Logistik, the Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG, the mining company Leag, the State Sports Association Saxony and the Owyo Campus. Other supporters are welcome, regardless of whether they are companies, institutions, associations or private persons. Saxony must remain a economically strong, future-oriented, stable federal state. For this, it needs more community spirit and high voter turnout.

Volkswagen spokesperson Christian Sommer reminded that at the largest private employer, more than 12,000 employees represent over 35 nationalities. "In times of change, it is important to strengthen social cohesion, listen to each other, take responsibility for our own actions and move forward."

Christian Dahms, managing director of the State Sports Association Saxony, described sports community as an important pillar of society. "We appeal to our members to stand together for the values of sports – Fairness, Respect and Tolerance – and to go voting on September 1st."
