The initiative "Bürgerinitiative Deutsche Einheit" (BDE) ("Citizens' Initiative for German Unity") emerged from the "International Society for Human Rights" (ISHR) which counted many GDR migrants among its members. The BDE was founded in Schleswig in January 1990 in order to support the opposition in the GDR on its path to reunification.

"Environmental issues were largely ignored in the GDR. The BDR thought of that too and organised an information stand addressing the theme for the Schleswig Housewife Association in Schleswig's sister city Waren/Mecklenburg. The stand was completely surrounded."
