Traveling exhibition at the Museum Pankow
RABE RALF is Berlin's last environmental newspaper. Its roots lie in the critical environmental movement of the GDR. For over 30 years, it has been reporting on regional and global issues from Prenzlauer Berg. It offers in-depth information on ecological, economic, and social topics, from nature conservation to environmental policy to agriculture. RABE is sometimes cheeky and rebellious, but always fact-oriented and humane.
A participatory medium for everyone
It has been published in print since 1990, with 10,000 copies every two months. As a "free newspaper," it is available in many locations in Berlin. It is also available digitally. The newspaper is produced by a small, idealistic team, supported by numerous volunteers, and made possible through subscriptions, donations, and advertising.
RABE sees itself as non-partisan, cross-association, and open to everyone. Its goal is to educate people about environmental and nature issues and to connect readers and activists. RABE thus follows the tradition of grassroots media that advocates environmental protection "from below." It is published by the GRÜNE LIGA Berlin.
Many perspectives on climate, urban nature, and subculture
RABE now offers insights into its nest. Starting April 11, 2025, all raven parents and friends will meet at the Museum Pankow.
- What do punk and black metal have to do with environmental protection?
- What are the farmers really protesting against?
- Why are foxes running at our feet in Berlin?
- How do you do independent environmental journalism?
- Why do you give a newspaper such a strange name?
- Is Ralf a Prenzlberg hipster?
These are just some of the questions at stake.
The exhibition explores the history, present, and practice of a unique newspaper that annoys some and pleases many. A diverse accompanying program invites visitors to get to know the newspaper, participate, and join the debate.
