Care for oneself and others, but also a care with the natural environment (engl. Care, arab. رعاية / عناية , span. Cuidado) – in short: taking care of the necessities of life, is central for social togetherness and for a life in respect and interaction with nature. The challenges of the Corona pandemic have shown us once again how important care is in our society. The current economic system runs counter to this vision. It survives only because of the devaluation of care work, through global inequality and through the destruction of ecological livelihoods.

In this workshop we would like to deal with the topic of care over four days. Different topics play a role: work, migration, health, post & decolonial perspectives and utopias for a good life for all.

Day 1 offers time to get to know each other and a basic introduction to the topic.

Day 2 will focus on our own position in relation to care. We then venture together into a change of perspective with a view to global inequalities.

Day 3 & 4 focus on worry in post-migrant alliances. Which utopias from South and North are important or could be starting points? We want to make care work fairly distributed and globally organized according to needs tangible and design steps of implementation. The workshop will take place digitally.

In the workshop, we take into focus the structures of power relations and multiple discrimination that we encounter again and again in various contexts. Anti-racist and anti-colonial resistance embedded in global and local interrelationships lead us to different places. In the seminar we investigate the question of how and where concretely colonial continuities become visible. We deal with ourselves in the micro and with the global world in the macro and together we follow the traces of the colonial heritage. We identify where awareness or sensitivity for one’s own behavior is required: positioning, privileges, prejudices. What does that have to do with me? How do I position myself when dealing with forms of discrimination such as racism and sexism? It’s about questioning and reflecting. What options do I have to influence or deconstruct social power relations?

Speakers:

Liviana Bath is an international multiplier of the Theater of the Oppressed and a facilitator for power-critical educational work with a focus on gender & diversity, critical whiteness and colonial continuities. Her concern is to sensitize and to question structural power relations, discrimination mechanisms and privileges by means of creative methods.

Muhammed Lamin Jadama is an activist, filmmaker and photographer. He works as a community trainer at Terre de Femme on gender equality and gender-based violence.

How do we want to learn together for more just societies? What content is needed? What attitudes do we need? What approaches and methods are needed?

In this future workshop, we want to come together with different experiences and perspectives to better shape our learning together. It should be a space for encounter, exchange, criticism, reflection and networking. The goal is also to jointly develop innovative educational project ideas.

Day 1: The workshop starts with getting to know each other and meeting. In the first phase of the Future Workshop we will then exchange our critique of Global Learning and Education for Sustainable Development and other forms of education. The whole workshop will be about content as well as the „how?“ of learning – i.e. didactics.

Day 2: In the second phase we will search for and develop our ideal concepts of learning.

Day 3 and 4: And finally, it will be about what we can do concretely to achieve these ideas. In this third and last phase, we will focus on concrete project planning.

We as organizers see the Future Workshop as a space for participation. We would like to contribute our own criticism, visions and project ideas. We think it is good to ask these questions already here: Is global learning critical enough towards power relations and forms of discrimination? Are the perspectives of different groups of people worldwide taken into account? Is it also possible to involve these groups of people directly in learning and to strengthen them in the process? Which perspectives and contents are not yet sufficiently addressed? Does learning take place hierarchically or at eye level? Is there enough room for emotions and learning with all senses?

Note: There should be room for all learning contexts, although we assume that there will be a focus on out-of-school learning.
