Lenka Sobotková

Small steps in a neighborhood change life more than grand gestures in parliament.

I believe in local politics that grows from people, not from large sponsor budgets and backroom deals. What matters to me is what happens here, in the place where I live, raise my children and meet my neighbors.

In our local association I handle communication and community events, and I also serve on Prague 5 committees. Every day I see that even seemingly small things can genuinely improve people's lives: a safer route to school, public space that works, better information or cooperation among neighbors. That is exactly why I want Barrandov to become a lively neighborhood where people meet and live.
