Integration as a lifestyle

Helpful networkers

Five passports in a hundred years – no other region has changed nationality as often as the Saarland. Maybe that’s why there is such an open-minded attitude to people moving here. Neighbourly assistance is also generally very evident. So, in the Saarland, you don’t need digital networks to make new contacts. You certainly don’t feel alone here. Indeed, Saarlanders were already networking before the word “internet” had been thought of.

Community life

Perfectly organised: club culture and volunteering

Nearly 400,000 Saarlanders are involved in clubs and organisations. In percentage terms, the Saarland is therefore among the top 5 of 16 federal regions as far as voluntary work is concerned.

No difficulty making contacts

Volunteering is often what makes great sports facilities in the clubs possible. In addition, the rich cultural life and the excellent standards in the field of emergency services, youth work, the health and social sector and in environmental protection and conservation would not be possible without volunteers.
