As a company with strong regional roots, we maintain regular contact with the neighboring communities surrounding BER. The airport company’s Head of Regional Affairs serves as the primary point of contact for our diverse regional stakeholders, such as local politicians and government officials. The Dialogue Forum Airport Berlin Brandenburg also plays a central role in facilitating communication and inter-municipal cooperation within the airport region.
Furthermore, we are committed to providing residents of the BER region with relevant information and facilitating direct dialogue with them. Neighborhood communication initiatives – such as the airport’s regional magazine and neighborhood newsletter – as well as engagement formats like “Neighbors in Dialogue” are integral components of our dialogue with citizens.
BER is at the heart of the region, closely intertwined with the people who live and work in the area surrounding the airport. Many residents therefore have a special and legitimate interest in what is happening at the airport and in the region.
That is why we offer both print and digital information resources specifically tailored to our neighbors. Through our local magazine "Nachbarn - Wir in der Flughafenregion" and our neighborhood newsletter, we keep interested residents and partners informed about current topics related to BER and our region.
Information and discussion on the issues that matter to people living near the airport: that’s what the “Neighbors in Dialogue” initiative is all about. Several times a year, we visit various communities around BER to engage in on-site discussions with city councils, municipal representatives, and residents. This gives local residents the opportunity to actively participate in the dialogue. The discussions are tailored to the specific local needs. Key topics include, for example, aircraft noise, flight paths and noise compensation, the noise protection program, and our regional engagement.
