The philosopher Martin Buber (1878-1965) became particularly known by his ‘dialogical principle’. This way of thinking implies that one tries in interacting, in talking with each other to really see the OTHER, to listen to him, quasi to listen within him and – meeting him – ‘giving’ him words and answers … In this way one could speak of a real RESPONSIBILITY.
During the EURIADE, the Martin Buber-Plaque is given to people who meet the OTHER in a dialogical-responsible way, listening to them and HELPING.
Every year the ‘curatorium‘-Martin Buber-Plaque and the board of the Euriade designate together this special personality.
