Get involved, contribute, experience nature: The Environmental Scouts in Schalke
On June 18, 2026, the Environmental Scouts' participation offer invites you to a creative afternoon focused on nature, environment, and sustainable action at the Schalke neighborhood store. The special aspect: the participants co-determine the activities and experience an event that combines practical environmental education with a sense of community. The event is free of charge and is aimed at everyone who enjoys a lively, open participation format.

A neighborhood becomes a space for ideas
The Schalke neighborhood store has been a meeting place in the district since July 2024, bringing together exchange, workshops, and consulting offers. This environment makes the participation activities particularly fitting: there is no dry lecture atmosphere, but rather an approachable format with participation, practice, and a palpable audience vibe.

From plant beds to natural paints
The program remains deliberately open and vibrant. According to the official event page, activities include designing a plant bed, making natural scrubs, and creative work with natural paints. Attendees will experience hands-on environmental education – in a small group, with direct interaction and many ideas for sustainable everyday impulses.

Behind the project: Experience in social and ecological work
The carrier of the Environmental Scouts offer is the St. Georg Social Work. The project supports people with and without assistance needs in engaging with ecological sustainability and taking action for environmental protection. The project manager is Alexander Libera, who has been accompanying the Environmental Scouts in Gelsenkirchen since 2022. This combination of social work, environmental awareness, and event planning gives the format professional depth and credibility.
