Every year, Saxony honors special commitment to integration and social cohesion. The application deadline is only a few days away.

Initiatives, companies, administrations and associations can still apply or be nominated for the Saxon Integration Award until next Tuesday. This year, for the 15th time, the award recognizes special commitment to people with a history of immigration and a sustainable contribution to open-minded coexistence in society.

The award will be presented by Social Affairs Minister Petra Köpping (SPD) and Saxony's Commissioner for Foreigners Geert Mackenroth (CDU). Three winners will each receive 3,000 euros. The award ceremony will take place on October 28 in the plenary hall of the state parliament. Last year, three initiatives from Borna, Großenhain and Königstein were honored.
