CONNECTING EINDHOVEN

الرتبة والامتياز، إدارة هوياتنا المتعددة عندما تتقاطع الهوية مع هويات متفارقة ومتوافقة

نحمل في حياتنا عدّة هويّات، هذه الهويّات تختلف بين هويّات مركزية تحمل القوة والتأثير وأخرى هامشية تأتي بقوة أقل

انضموا لورشة العمل هذه لنلق الضوء على كيفية فك تعقيد الهويّة الخاصة بنا. حيث إن تسميّة هوياتنا الهامشية والمركزية يساعدنا على إيجاد موقعنا و معرفة كمية القوة التي نتمتع بها في مساحات بعينها دون أخرى

Beyond good intentions: What does it mean to be an ally and how can we be effective ally(s)?

Language: English.

For whom: Everyone.

Information: How to move away from paralysis of guilt/shame and helplessness and step into being active anti-racist, anti ableist, and anti-oppression in behaviour, not only with words. Experiential activities and opportunities to share and to practice how we can move into behaving in alignment with our values.

Change for beyond today and for all

Language: English.

For whom: Everyone.

Information: In this workshop, we will be looking at how we can contribute to a long term, sustainable and inclusive societal change as individuals and groups/communities. There are, for sure, so much that we can do as individuals and it indeed starts with one person most of the time and spreads to hundreds. As we come together, we have more potential to create a bigger impact on the change. In addition to this, we would also like to look at how to extend our field of influence to make the changes more sustainable for next generations and also how to include everyone's voices and needs into the changes we work for.

Bewust worden van mijn impact

Taal: Nederlands.

Voor wie: Iedereen.

Informatie: We onderzoeken in deze workshop vanuit de definities van Macht en Privilege hoe deze zich uiten in jouw eigen leven. Op welke vlakken heb jij invloed, ben je je bewust van de impact van jouw invloed op anderen die misschien in een ander positie verkeren? Kan jij je invloed inzetten ten behoeve van het grotere geheel en daarmee bijdragen aan positieve sociale verandering?

Social change starts with me

Language: English.

For whom: Everyone.

Information: We’ll invite people’s reflections on themselves, their immediate circles of influence and the systems they are enrolled in. We’ll invite them to speak about and name their feelings about social systems, what needs they want to meet and what they want to change. We’ll develop the question of how systems we are enrolled in are harmful for those with less privilege. We’ll explore who is included and who is excluded from existing groups, how we are or are not able to listen to others, widening our empathy, accepting feelings of shame and guilt, empathy for what we have not done, our sense of responsibility and shame. We’ll ask what is our resistance for connecting with others and what is our fluidity in meeting others with openness. We’ll invite life stories and how we hear or don’t hear others’ disadvantages. We intend to use CHAT, Breakout Rooms, Meditative reflections, writing/ drawing, and sharing in the main group to include everyone’s voices.

Living with dignity and strength in the face of marginalization

Language: English.

For whom: People from marginalized/migrant groups.

Information: We will touch on the following topics: Power and how it impacts us; what is white supremacy culture/mind set and how does it show up in our lives; what are some of the legacies of colonialism that have a current impact on our lives, and more.

Praten over kleur? Ja, graag!

Taal: Nederlands.

Voor wie: Iedereen.

Informatie: In Nederland hebben we te maken met grote, structurele en culturele machtsverschillen. Het hebben van een witte huidskleur betekent dat je beschikt over privileges. Privileges die Nederlanders van kleur niet hebben. Het benoemen van de structurele verschillen en deze erkennen kan lastig en pijnlijk zijn. Tijdens deze workshop willen we het gesprek over de impact van kleur met elkaar aangaan. We onderzoeken welke dingen we misschien zelf onbewust doen, die bijdragen aan ongelijkheid. We willen je vragen om voor deelname deze test te doen: https://www.onderhuids.nl/test-jezelf/

Birlikteliğin hizmetinde ayrıcalıklar ve güç

Dil: Türkçe.

Kimin için: Herkes.

Bilgi: Hepimiz güç ve ayrıcalık kelimelerini birçok farklı bağlamda duymuş olabiliriz. İletişimle ilgili bir atölyede bu konunun neden yer aldığını merak edebilirsiniz. Ağzımızı her açtığımızda veya birinin söylediği kelimeleri duyduğumuzda, hatta her seçim yaptığımızda (ve her saniye bir seçim yaparız!) bunu, sahip olduğumuz veya sahip olmadığımız güç ve ayrıcalıkların etkileriyle yapıyoruz. Her ne kadar güç ve ayrıcalık unsurları kültürümüzün içine gömülmüş halde ye aldığı için görünmez durumda olsalar da, bizim ve diğerlerinin üzerindeki etkileri son derece görülürdür. Bu atölye çalışmasında, dünyaya daha fazla barış, eşitlik ve özen getirecek şekilde harekete geçirebilmek üzere içimizdeki ve çevremizdeki güç ve ayrıcalıklar hakkında daha fazla bilgi edinmek ve daha fazla farkına varmayı arzu ediyoruz.

Empathy for connection, empathy for seeing deeper human beauty of self and other(s)

Ruimte maken voor andere ervaringen

Taal: Nederlands.

Voor wie: Iedereen.

Informatie: Hoe kun je ruimte maken om elkaar te horen ook al heb je geen gedeelde ervaring? De ‘bubbel’ waarin we leven kan invloed hebben op hoe we de wereld ervaren. Iedereen wordt verschillend ontvangen in de wereld op basis van bijvoorbeeld onze afkomst, huidskleur, gender, leeftijd, etc. Het kan lastig zijn om anderen te horen in ervaringen die ver van je af staan en deze te erkennen. Hoe kun je met een open hart luisteren en openstaan voor de ervaring van de ander los van wat er in jou wordt geraakt?

Empatide insanlığımızla bağ kurmak

Dil: Türkçe.

Kimin için: Herkes.

Bilgi: Nerede doğmuş olursak olalım, tenimizin rengi ne olursa olsun ya da hangi cinsiyete ait olduğumuzu hissedersek hissedelim, hepimiz aynı evrensel insan ihtiyaçlarını paylaşıyoruz. İhtiyaçlar, insanlığımızın ortak bir zemini. Empati, başkalarının deneyimiyle bağ kurmamızı sağlayan, doğal bir insan becerisidir. Hatta deneyimler, duyulmayı ya da bağ kurmayı güçleştirecek şekilde ifade edildiğinde bile... Empati, kendimizin ve başkalarının en derin ihtiyaçlarıyla bağlantı kurmamızı sağlar, bu da sorunlarımız karşısında herkes için işe yarayan ve bağlarımızı restore eden, güçlendiren ve derinleştiren çözümler üretmemizi mümkün kılar. Bu atölye çalışmasında, kazan-kaybet paradigmasına girmeden empatinin en derin özlemlerimizi (ihtiyaçları) duymak ve başkalarının özlemleriyle bağlantı kurmak için bizi nasıl destekleyebileceğini inceleyeceğiz.
