Draft law „Rights of the Spree“ – English translation

Zusammenfassung

With a group of volunteers, GLI drafted a bill on the rights of the River Spree for the exhibition “On Water” at the Humboldt Labor of the Humboldt Forum in Berlin. The draft is part of a module that deals with the rights of nature and the relationship between humans and the river. It is intended to encourage visitors to the exhibition to reflect on this relationship and critically question who creates laws and for whom. The exhibition “On Water” will open on October 10, 2025, and admission is free.
