Life

After graduating from high school in 1976, Gisela Nacken studied architecture at RWTH Aachen University from 1976 to 1983 and graduated with a degree in engineering. Since 1983 she has been working as a freelance architect. At the same time, she was a research assistant at the chair for planning theory at RWTH Aachen University from 1983 to 1987 and a research assistant for the Greens parliamentary group in the field of housing policy from 1987 to 1990 .

From 1990 to 1999, Nacken was a member of the eleventh and twelfth state parliaments of North Rhine-Westphalia . After the formation of the red-green coalition, Gisela Nacken was elected parliamentary group leader with equal rights with Roland Appel . As a representative of the Realpolitiker, she fought together with Appel against the coalition critics around the fundamentalists Manfred Busch and Daniel Kreutz for the preservation and continued existence of the red-green coalition in North Rhine-Westphalia. Nacken had particularly tough arguments with the social democratic economics minister Wolfgang Clement over the expansion of Dortmund airport and numerous road construction projects, which became "sticking points" for the first red-green coalition in North Rhine-Westphalia. She moved into the state parliament via the state list of her party and left the state parliament on January 31, 1999 to take up her position as technical department head of the city of Aachen, for which she was sworn in on January 27, 1999. On October 18, 2006, Nacken was elected Head of Planning and Environment by the City Council of Aachen for a further eight years.
