International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women/ Gender-based violenceWorkshop "Finally confronting everyday sexism as a cis man in solidarity"
November 18 and 24| 4 p.m. - 7 p.m. | online
When cis men (men who identify with their gender assigned by birth) deal with their own role and responsibility in the context of everyday sexism, there is a danger that feelings of guilt and shame associated with their own privileged position in the social sphere will prevent steps towards an equal practice. The workshop aims to lay the foundation for concrete action in everyday life that determines a solidarity-based approach to those affected by sexism.
In the first part, participants will use self-reflection and biographical work to find out which behavioral patterns and feelings prevent them from intervening in
sexist situations in everyday life. This also includes sharpening their own perception of different forms of sexism. The second part will focus on concrete strategies and "tools".
The workshop will be conducted by the educational collective educat and is aimed exclusively at cis men.
All events are free of charge to participants. If you have support needs due to language or other barriers, don't be afraid to feedback them to us.
Registration required.
