Banking Hall at Forum at Domshof
Knowledge Is the New Currency!
Where money once changed hands, knowledge now changes minds.
The Banking Hall in the Forum at Domshof building is located on the ground floor, directly behind the large foyer. In the future, the space will serve as a multifunctional meeting place that promotes exchange between the university and the city of Bremen, highlighting the University of Bremen's (inter- and trans-) disciplinary diversity. A third place for dialogue, interactive knowledge transfer, and creative exploration of science and research is being created.
The Idea Behind the Banking Hall
Discover, experiment, and engage in dialogue. The Banking Hall is a meeting place for science and society.
The range of possibilities is vast:
- Dialogue events on socially relevant topics
- Workshops, maker sessions, and creative hands-on activities
- Readings and performance art
- Exhibitions
- and much more...
We are currently developing a regular program of events and testing out different formats.

Protest and Social Movements between Innovation and Tradition
Conference
October 01 and 02, 2025
Whether it's Fridays for Future, Black Lives Matter, or the Yellow Vests, waves of protest often arise suddenly - and profoundly change political discourse. But they do not exist in isolation. They build on earlier movements, transform familiar forms of action, or invent new ones - both analog and digital. This conference is an invitation to an interdisciplinary exchange on the history, present, and future of social movements. The conference will be held in English.

The aim is to analyze long-term trends in the media transformation and open up new perspectives for research.
