Bochum's Sustainability Center invites ideas, exchange, and participation

In the heart of the city, an open space is being created in the Sustainability Center for anyone who wants to make Bochum more sustainable. On August 6, 2026, visitors will be welcomed at Kortumstraße 93 with a free event offering exhibitions, discussions, workshops, and participatory formats.

A place for sustainable city moments

The Sustainability Center sees itself as a meeting point for ecological, economic, and social sustainability. According to Bochum Tourism, the space is intentionally diverse: In the foyer, discussions take place, ideas and questions emerge on a chalkboard, a swap shelf encourages sharing instead of throwing away, and in the Listen area, lectures and discussion formats occur.

Exhibition, workshop, and encounter in a retail space

Particularly exciting is the mix of exhibition and practical involvement. The Look closely area creates space for changing presentations, while in the Do something area, workbenches, materials, and space for repair cafés, upcycling offers, and workshops are available. This transforms a retail space into a vibrant event experience with proximity to the urban community.

This is what the sustainability year feels like

The sustainability year 2026 in Bochum focuses on a culture of participation instead of distance. The atmosphere feels open, curious, and urban at the same time. Those who stop by won’t experience a traditional trade fair format, but rather a place where event planning, target audience communication, and everyday issues come together. This exactly makes the center a strong building block for a sustainable Bochum.

Who should visit

The offering is aimed at all interested parties, initiatives, families, neighborhoods, clubs, students, and people looking for practical ideas for a sustainable city. Due to its location at Kortumstraße 93, the center is also easy to integrate into a city visit.

Conclusion: For those who want to experience Bochum from a new perspective, this is an inspiring place for exchange, exhibitions, and concrete impulses. The Sustainability Center offers great reasons to stop by on August 6, 2026, and experience sustainability live.
