2022 Peace Table
Due to the pandemic, the 2021 Peace Table could not take place until May 2022, just like the award ceremony.
Organized by the Office for Culture and Leisure (KuF) and the Human Rights Office, the sold-out Peace Table once again attracted more than 4,000 participants, who celebrated the award winner Sayragul Sauytbay with food they had brought along. Her husband and two children also visibly enjoyed the open-air picnic. The samba group from the Nuremberg music school "Norisamba" once again kicked off the event, putting visitors in the mood for a cheerful afternoon.
A whole range of human rights organizations, including the Tibet Initiative Nuremberg e.V., provided information about their work and discussed it with interested parties. Members of the international jury answered the guests' questions and accompanied the award winner on her tour along the tables together with mayor Marcus König.

Discussion event in the Caritas Pirckheimer House
Following the Peace Table, Sayragul Sauytbay, sensitively and knowledgeably moderated by former MP Margarete Bause, gave an insight into her personal life. She described her experience as a refugee, her everyday life in Sweden and once again appealed to the democratic world not to remain silent in the face of the serious human rights violations in the Chinese party state.
