The International Choir and the General Student Committee (AStA) of the University of Bonn invite you to a "Singing Human Chain" next Sunday, March 20, 2022, at 4 pm. At the solidarity event, a human chain will be formed from the University's main building in the city center to the United Nations on the UN campus. The highlight: all participants will sing the song "Give peace a chance" in coordination. Everyone who wants to stand up for peace is invited to join in.
Those who want to participate, can register at https://www.menschenkette-bonn.de for one of the six locations of the chain and then come there punctually between 15:30 and 15:55 on Sunday. Volunteers will then point the way into the human chain, with arrows additionally marking the way. People can also sign up via the website if they would like to volunteer to help with the campaign.
It is requested to comply with the mask requirement for events of this kind. To enable a safe human chain, the organizers ask for creativity: Items such as scarves, ribbons or Hawaiian chains should be brought along to close the human chain and ensure distance.
We hope you enjoy reading the newsletter.
Best regards
