The application process
- A collaborative multi-phase process to match spaces and users
Step-by-step
allocation
allocation
The process already tested during the allocation of spaces in Building A will be continued this year:
Additional spaces in the experimental buildings will be allocated with a focus on
→ sustainable economies,
→ social learning, and
→ inclusive living.
Since 2018, these spaces have been developed in trust by ZUsammenKUNFT Berlin eG as part of the KOOP5 cooperation network.
Fair
Selection
Selection
A diverse panel of experts accompanies the multi-stage and transparent allocation process.
It consists of representatives from neighborhood development and AndersMachen eG, along with external experts from the fields of art, culture, social affairs, inclusive neighborhoods, education, housing, urban transformation, as well as climate and intergenerational justice.
In the allocation process, the panel is guided by specific criteria to ensure a fair, content-appropriate, and economically viable decision.
Coherent
uses
uses
We are looking for groups or institutions that understand the context of the Haus der Statistik model project and whose planned use is oriented toward the common good.
We welcome uses that contribute to the diversity of users – whether by reducing barriers, creating programs for specific communities, or through the diversity of the actors themselves, in terms of origin, socioeconomic background, age groups, or potential impairments.

→ Phase 1: Open Call
May 10 – June 30, 2025, 11:59 PM
The application process is entirely digital. Interested parties fill out the online form.
After the application deadline, the independent allocation committee will meet in July and make recommendations on who can become an active member of the cooperatives AndersMachen eG or AndersWohnen eG – and thus rent spaces in the experimental buildings on a long-term and affordable basis.
All applicants will be informed of the decision by email.

→ Phase 2: Cluster Meetings
July – September 2025
Upon acceptance into the next phase, a so-called "pre-membership fee" is due. Once this has been paid, you will enter the second phase: This includes several meetings in small groups with the selected applicants – the cluster meetings.
Here, open questions will be clarified and the financing of the spaces discussed.
Afterwards, it will be asked who would like to commit to renting a space at Haus der Statistik.
Each experimental building will host one to two cluster meetings of three hours each – scheduled between July 14–23 and September 8–30, 2025.
→ Phase 3: Final Selection
October 2025
From these interested parties, the committee will select the final users. They will become members of AndersMachen eG, a cooperative that already includes the users of Building A and will be responsible for the future operation of the building.
