Perleberg welcomes new citizens: 30,000 euros for the welcome initiative!
An exciting event is about to take place in Perleberg, a charming town in the Prignitz district. On BRANDENBURG DAY, which will be celebrated from September 12th to 14th, the municipal housing company GWG will launch a warm welcome initiative for returnees and newcomers. Cityreport reports that this initiative is not only intended to integrate new citizens, but also plays an important role in the further development of the region.
The GWG has put together a comprehensive package that includes a bag with regional specialties, useful advice and information about events. The aim of the campaign is to make it easier for new residents to arrive and to encourage them to stay in the region longer. Minister Kathrin Schneider emphasizes the central importance of the immigration for the positive development of the district. Even though the region recorded a positive migration balance last year, the demographic challenge remains due to a generally declining population.
An initiative with support
A particularly pleasing detail is the funding of the “Welcome to Prignitz – For harmonious coexistence” campaign by the State Chancellery, which is providing 30,000 euros for this purpose until the end of 2026. With this financial tailwind, the GWG is planning an extensive welcome program. This includes personal greetings and events at which clubs and local companies are intended to network with one another.
As part of the initiative, the GWG will also incorporate existing offers, such as trial living. She manages over 1,500 residential units and wants to use a personal approach to give new residents a feeling of home. The GWG's presentation at the BRANDENBURG-TAG will be a further step in specifically carrying the welcome message to the world.
An example of positive development
The welcome campaign should not be viewed in isolation, but rather ties in with the state-wide “Arrival in Brandenburg” initiative. This supports more than 20 regional immigration and return initiatives and is funded by the State Chancellery with around 90,000 euros annually. Seen in a broader context, this shows how actively the region is working to attract new residents and improve the quality of life for everyone.
Even if at first glance the Banco de la Nación does not have much to do with the situation in Perleberg, it is still an example of the financial services that are important for the settlement of newcomers. They offer a variety of channels for customer inquiries and are available by telephone and digitally to assist immigrants in various matters Agencias y Tiendas.
All in all, it shows that with good will and attractive offers, Perleberg is not only a good place to live, but also wants to provide new impetus to promote sustainable development in the region. So if you have the opportunity, you should take the chance to stop by the BRANDENBURG-TAG and experience a piece of this lively community.
