  • Advisory Council for Displaced Persons, Refugees and Ethnic German Resettlers

    The task of the Advisory Council for Expellees, Refugees and Late Repatriates, which consists of seven members, is to advise the expellees, refugees and late repatriates, to represent their interests in public and to arouse their understanding for the measures taken by the authorities. In this sense, the advisory board should also sensitize the administration and the council for the interests of the expellees and late repatriates.

    In close cooperation with the representatives of the institutions and organizations for displaced persons, refugees and ethnic German immigrants, it participates in the planning and implementation of measures and programs. In addition, the Advisory Council can provide education, information and entertainment with its own events.

    The members of the advisory board are elected by the conference of delegates of the associations and organizations active in the field of action.

  • Integration Council

    The Integration Council is a democratically legitimized body that results from a primary election in which only immigrants can participate. People with or without an immigrant background can be elected, regardless of their citizenship - as individual candidates or as lists.

    The Integration Council is committed to the social participation, integration and other concerns of immigrant people.

    It fulfills an important cross-sectional function by ensuring that the interests of migrants are taken into account in political decisions in the city. Furthermore, it contributes to improving the situation of migrants in Hilden and thus helps to improve the coexistence of different cultures within our society.

    Since 1994, the municipal code of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia has stipulated the formation of a migrant representative body. The election takes place on the same day as the municipal election. The Integration Council is composed of 12 elected representatives and one member of each parliamentary group represented in the Council (7 in total). All 19 members are entitled to vote. In addition, representatives of the welfare associations based in Hilden take part in the meetings in an advisory capacity. The Hilden Integration Council is a member of the NRW State Integration Council.

    All information is available in the citizen information system.

  • Youth Advisory Council

    Since 2011, the Child Education Act (KiBiz) has provided for the election of a parents' representative body for parents with children in daycare centers in order to give them an opportunity to participate at the local level, among other things.
