With the prize, Magdeburg is making a clear commitment to the European community.

For Harald Rupprecht as Vice President of the European Movement Saxony-Anhalt e.V., working on the Emperor Otto Prize committee is a great honour and a matter close to his heart.

The European Movement has been working since 1995 to promote the European idea in Saxony-Anhalt and the growing together of European nations.

“With the Emperor Otto Prize, the City of Magdeburg is making a clear and unequivocal commitment to the European community and is providing exemplary support for the urgently needed further European dialogue and unification process.”
