Discrimination – and what does it have to do with me? An introductory workshop on the topic of discrimination

What does discrimination actually mean and do I encounter it at work or at school? Who is affected by it, who benefits? And what can I actually do about it?

In this workshop, we will deal with the most important terms around discrimination, the rights of trainees and relevant contact points and offers of help. We work with creative, participative and digital methods as well as real-life examples that aim at active trying out and learning.
