Dear friends and colleagues, The colloquium is still in recess and meanwhile the GLOBE21 science festival, organised by the Research Centre Global Dynamics (ReCentGlobe), reaches its final stage. Until 17 July you may still enjoy a wide range of events – among them our Screening Religion tomorrow night with the two very touching films “The Heart of Jenin” and “After the Silence”. The screening starts at 7 p.m. and can be watched here. Besides that, we have a new publication for you, a note about our reading group and recommendations for two very special events. Enjoy and have a good week! Anja & Lucy |

Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften Leipzig (Long Night of the Sciences Leipzig) on 16 JulyThis year, the Long Night of the Sciences Leipzig welcomes you online! The largest joint event of Leipzig's science institutions brings lectures, guided tours, talks, games, experiments, puzzles and more directly to your home – or wherever you happen to be on 16 July from 6 p.m. Among numerous events worth seeing, we would like to draw your attention to the presentation of the Documentation Centre for Religious and Ideological Pluralism in Germany at the Institute for the Study of Religions at Leipzig University. The documentation centre collects and catalogues source material on various religious and ideological communities in German-speaking countries with the focus on groups and movements that exist alongside the established churches. Guided by the question “Ist das Wissenschaft oder kann das weg?” (“Is this science or can it be thrown it away?”) there will be an online tour through the cellar vault of the centre followed by a discussion. A round of talks with students and lecturers will focus on how research behind dusty bookshelves finally creates its transfer to real life and does not remain just “abstract art”. Registration is not necessary. 16 July | 7.30–8.15 p.m. (CET) Online via livestream

Dışardayız! | Wir gehen raus! (We’re going outside!) Open Air Cinema, Concert & Workshops, 16–18 JulyOur Associate Member Markus Dressler points to a range of intercultural events organized by the Kültür Kollektiv Leipzig e.V. This organisation promotes cultural and social exchange of people from Turkey and all persons interested in topics from Turkey in fields such as literature, film and music. Under the slogan “We are going outside“, the film “When the soul freezes | Eğer Ruh Donarsa“ will be shown open air on 16 July. There will also be a concert with KüKo Sounds, which sees itself as a cultural bridge between Turkey and Germany and presents music in the languages of Turkey from very different genres. In addition, a language tandem German-Turkish, yoga courses and a children's workshop will be offered. As reservation is not necessary, it could be wise to arrive early. Feel free to bring your own picnic blankets, snacks and drinks for sale you will find on site. 16 July | 9.30 p.m. (CET) 17 July | 5.00 p.m. (CET) 17 July | 8.00 p.m. (CET) 18 July | 2.00–5.00 p.m. (CET)
