Making stories visible
Experience diversity positively, broaden your horizons
Story Teller
Background
Biel is incredibly diverse. But we often only hear, read or experience the stories of privileged people or those with a certain degree of fame.
Our approach
We offer a stage for creative utopias, extraordinary living environments, personal strokes of fate and apparent everyday life. Special consideration is given to speakers with a migration background, BIPoC or FLINTA.

Further information on the project
How can I share my story on Story Teller?
Quite simply: Get in touch. We are proactively looking for people from all over the world in Biel/Bienne and the region who have an interesting story to share.
What types of stories are welcome at Story Teller?
Special consideration will be given to speakers with a migration background and people whose stories are systematically less heard in the public sphere (BIPoC, FLINTA). The audience is invited to question their own stereotypes and to be more open in their dealings with people of all kinds.
Can I also register as an organisation for a collaboration?
Yes, absolutely.
