HaNeuFashion
Workshop on improving digital competence in Halle-Neustadt
As part of the „Smart City Halle“ project, Yang Ni engages as a designer and workshop instructor with KulturBühne e.V. and schools in Neustadt. He designed the workshop format „HaNeuFashion“, which enables pupils to design their own fashion bags under the motto „Your story, your style, your bag“. This process allows them to develop their digital skills. The bags serve as a medium for the pupils‘ personal expression and promote this project in public spaces.

As part of the „Make it Neu together (MiNt)“ project, Yang Ni has designed the „HaNeuFashion“ format in collaboration with KulturBühne e.V. and schools in Halle-Neustadt. The aim is to strengthen students‘ digital skills through creative and practical workshops. Under the motto „Your story, your style, your bag“, the participants design their own fashion bag. This process encourages individual creativity and the use of digital tools. The bags represent the students‘ personal expression and carry the project into the public space.
In addition, workshops and recycled materials create an awareness of sustainability. The „MiNt“ project recently received full funding from SmartCity, which will enable several schools to set up digital labs and workshops. „HaNeuFashion“ is a concrete attempt to implement social design in Halle-Neustadt and bring positive change to the Neustadt community.
