Und kommt so gemeinsam auf neue Ideen, die nachhaltig wirken. • Resultate, mitnehmen und notieren: Am Schluss des Walking Meetings unbedingt die wichtigsten Punkte gemeinsam festhalten.

Valentine's Day, celebrated on February 14th, is a day dedicated to love and affection. Its origins can be traced to both Christian and Roman traditions. The name "Valentine" likely comes from two Christian martyrs named Valentine who lived in the Roman Empire during the 3rd century. One of the legends surrounding Valentine suggests that he defied Emperor Claudius II's ban on marriages for young men, as Claudius believed that single men made better soldiers. Valentine continued to perform marriages in secret and was eventually arrested and executed on a February 14th. Legend says, he sent a love letter to his jailer's daughter, signing it "From your Valentine," which is a phrase still used today. Valentine's Day gained popularity over the centuries. In the Middle Ages, it became associated with romantic love. In the 19th century, the exchange of love notes and cards became a common practice. Today, Valentine's Day is a global occasion. 200+ million roses are grown, 20+ Billion USD are spent, 190+ million Valentine's Day cards are exchanged in the US alone.

The Carnival of Brazil, February 10-14 in 2024, has its origins in European colonial traditions, particularly Portuguese entrudo festivals, enriched by African and indigenous influences. It's a festivity that epitomizes Brazil's cultural diversity, with its peak expressions in cities like Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Recife, and Olinda. It has existed since 1723. Its signature samba music and dance reflect African heritage, while the masquerade balls and street parties have European roots. At the "blocos", street parties, locals and tourists celebrate with music, dance, and costumes. There is immense preparation and community involvement. Samba schools work year-round to prepare their performances, involving communities in the creation of costumes and floats, and rehearsal of dances and songs. This communal effort underscores the festival's significance as a cultural expression and a generator of social cohesion. Rio's Carnaval, the largest of the world, has 2 million participants daily. It is famous for its Sambadrome parades, showcases samba schools competing with elaborate floats and costumes. Despite its festive nature, it also offers a stage for social commentary, with themes addressing political and social issues through samba lyrics and parade themes. This multifaceted celebration combines joy, resistance, and cultural expression, making it a profound reflection of Brazilian society. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Carnival Art&Text supported by ChatGPT.
