Turgut Altug stands in front of the intercultural garden he founded

Part of the ecocenter includes an intercultural garden

In Germany, Turks make up the largest immigrant group. They were invited here following the Second World War as guest workers, and many of them never left. Many have also never fully integrated into German society, and blame for that has been passed around for decades.

Turgut Altug is trying to change that while also building up ecological knowledge among immigrants. In the Berlin neighborhood of Kreuzberg he has founded a German-Turkish environment center to help with that mission – the first of its kind in Germany.
