At the OpenFORUM Jena (MitmachFORUM Jena), the university, the city and the region are breaking new ground: together with the city's citizens, we are testing concepts for more dialogue between research, politics, administration and society in exciting events. The OpenFORUM invites everyone to contribute their knowledge. After its completion, the new FORUM of the University of Jena in the middle of the city will continue this diverse exchange in the long term as an open communication centre.

  • 15 June 2026 | OpenFORUM »More than just green? Biodiversity in urban planning«

    Green spaces are more than just places of recreation – they are habitats, climate regulators and meeting places. But how can a construction boom, traffic and biodiversity be reconciled? The OpenFORUM brings together city administration, academia and civil society to discuss biodiversity in Jena. Join the discussion!
