Save the Date: “Strategies against Racism as a Cross-Cutting Issue for European Universities” | Lecture: 25.10.2021 and Workshop 3. & 10.11.2021
Knowledge of how racism works, especially in the academic realm, how we are caught up in it in often different ways, and abilities to counteract it are important elements to becoming able to work towards more discrimination-sensitive European Universities together.
The Project “Strategies against racism as a cross-cutting issue for European Universities” consists of a lecture (open for all) and a workshop (aimed at and open for employees of the ENLIGHT-member universities, esp. teachers, lecturers, researchers as well as science management staff). It offers possibilities to raise knowledge, to reflect on one’s own position in the context of racism and opens up paths to change.
The lecture „Racism in European Universities – Origins, Continuities and Ways of Expression“ will take place on Monday, 25 October 2021 7:30 p.m. – 9 p.m. (online via Zoom) and open for everybody interested. Only a short registration is necessary, which will soon be available via the project’s website.
The workshop „Strategies against racism as a cross-cutting issue for European Universities“ will take place on two consecutive Wednesdays, 3 and 10 November (online via Zoom). The Workshop is open for university employees, esp. those who act as multipliers (teachers, lecturers, researchers as well as science management staff) of the ENLIGHT-member universities. Here, an application is necessary. It will soon be available via the project’s website.
The lecture and workshop can be attended independently of each other.
Lecture and workshop are organised by the Equal Opportunities and Diversity Unit of the University of Göttingen within the framework of and funded by the DAAD project „ENLIGHT TRANSFORM“.
