CALL FOR TRAINERS 2020

Content

Blind Spots in Your Activism – In this workshop participants should learn how to reflect social power structures and their effects on their own activism (e.g. White Savior Complex, Mansplaining ect.) How can we contribute to the well-being of a community even though one is not part of this community? What is the motivation behind our own activism? The workshop should create awareness, but not demotivate participants from being socially engaged.

 

Target Group

Participants are between 20 and 30 years old. Whereas many come from Germany, others are born and based in Egypt, Tunisia and other European and neighboring countries. If the workshop takes place in person, most participants are Germans (total number of participants 10-15 // location Rittergut Schilbach, close to Schöneck, Sachsen, Germany). If IBC takes place online, there will be more non-Germans than Germans (total number of participants 20-30).

Remuneration: 500,00 Euros
