Magazine In Focus Tobias Schrank © Goethe-Institut Time to listen The current situation has forced many people around the world to stay at home and follow the news. In this isolation they hear the news of a global crisis and threat.

The project “Time to listen” presents a collection of stories - told by storytellers from all genres of art, from all over the world. © Illi Anna Heger + Sam Orchard Comic Queer Comic Conversations Queer Comic Conversations is a webcomic series by artists Illi Anna Heger and Sam Orchard where they discuss similarities and differences about queer and trans lives.The series stretches from July to December 2020; every month, a new episode will be released.
