We are glad to start our Intersectional Workshop series with “Care Feminism and Transindigenous Knowledge” workshop held by Joulia Strauss and Elke Krasny.
What does it mean to live in an Infected Planet? ​​How one can learn to think care at all scales, from the microbial to the planetary, from the personal to the political? How can we embrace self care, singing Ancient Greek hymns and dance as a political activism? During this two-day workshop, we will focus on ecofeminism, caring, maintenance as resistance.

Introduction of UdK's new Diversity Representative

22.03.22 • admin_asta

The AStA is happy to remind you about the new Diversity Representative of the UdK, Dr. Mutlu Ergün-Hamaz!  Please find his introduction below:

About my job:

You are a student, lecturer or employee of the UdK and have experienced or observed racist (or other forms of) discrimination at the UdK and would like to talk about it, but do not know to whom?

You have questions or uncertainties about diversity, anti-racism, anti-discrimination, intersectionality and empowerment?

You are no longer alone with your questions and experiences. If you want, you can talk to me about it. I work independently and confidentially.

About me:

Coming from a social research background, I have a PhD on narratives of racialization and empowerment in Germany from the LSE (London School of Economics and Political Science). I have 20 years of experience in political education, including anti-racism, Critical Whiteness and empowerment training. I am a freelance writer. My long-term goal is to create conditions in order to develop the UdK Berlin into an institution aware to racism and discrimination structurally at all levels.
