Regional branches
The Bits & Bäume community is growing! There are regional branches with various activities and formats: regular meetups for discussions, groups organizing evening events with talks, or even full conferences. Anything is possible! Many of the groups listed below primarily offer German-language formats. If you're looking for English-language events, feel free to reach out to the groups directly!

Bits & Bäume Mainz/ Rhein-Main
The regional branch was founded in 2025 and is currently in its development phase. In autumn 2025, we organized our first digital events, laying the foundation for our future work. Starting in April 2026, we are planning a multi-part online event series focusing on the key topics of the Bits & Bäume demands, as well as an in-person conference on June 23, 2026, in Mainz. We welcome active participation and new members.
Bits & Bäume NRW
The engagement is coordinated through the Eine Welt Netz NRW (statewide network). Several larger in-person and digital conferences have already taken place and are intended to be further established. Participation and co-creation are very welcome. Regular community meet-ups are planned to be launched in 2026.
This could be your town! :)
