The 1998 movement felt never-ending. At least it is so in my memory, when day after day was passed at the post, discussing, working together among elements of society: pupils, students, laborers, teachers and anyone who believes in a shared ideal called reform. Up to 25 years have passed, unwittingly, in the blink of an eye; but there appears a question of whether meaningful changes have happened in line with the spirit of reform?
This reflection overshadowed my journey to meet an invitation to attend a cultural symposium in Weimar, Germany. Kultursymposium Weimar is an activity initiated by Goethe Institut in order to encourage intercultural conversation to respond to global conditions such as post-pandemic, gaps and climate crisis.
