Episode 38: Similarities, generations, conversations

Our podcast series YOU ASK we explain - Berührungsängste mit der Wissenschaft is dedicated to the topic in our 38th episode: Commonalities, generations, conversations

How do we actually want to live together?

Families are perhaps the smallest democratic cells in our society. Between the breakfast table and bedtime stories, we learn every day what community means: listening, asking questions, enduring, disagreeing - and still belonging together. In families, we learn how important it is to express our wishes, take responsibility and find solutions together. All of this shapes us for the rest of our lives.

On the occasion of the podcast festival in the Neustadt library, we would like to reflect with you - based on the children's question show in the central library - on how we come together as families and how we live together as generations. What challenges do we face? What opportunities lie in the small moments of everyday life? And what can we learn from each other?

Together with the TU Dresden podcast format "YOU ASK we explain", Jana Forkel - known from "Sendung mit der Maus" and "neuneinhalb" - collects your questions about family, living together and generations. They will be taken up and answered live on site by author Gerda Raidt and scientists from TU Dresden. The result is a conversation that shows: Every question counts. And every perspective helps us to better understand how we live together.

For families and children aged 6 and over.

Our Advisors:

• Ines Müller - Child and adolescent psychotherapist at Dresden University Hospital
• Arno Kleber - Chair of Physical Geography
• Jana Forkel - Journalist, in front of and behind the camera with Mouse and Elephant
• Gerda Raidt - author of "My whole family", illustrator
