“Gesellschaft im Dialog (Society in Dialogue)” continues with diverse events
Since mid-2020, the ZfI, together with the
Institut für angewandte Demokratie- und Sozialforschung (Institute for Applied Democracy and Social Research) anDemos, the
Kulturbüro Sachsen as well as numerous local partners, has been conducting the event series “Diversity in Dialogue”, which has continued since the beginning of the year under the title “Society in Dialogue” (GiD).
“What is racism?” was the topic of the kick-off event in 2021, which was held as part of the International Weeks against Racism. On March 29, Franziska Martinsen, Eter Hachmann and Douha Al-Fayyad spoke with Julia Schulze Wessel about the concept of racism, addressing who talks about racism and how. They also discussed what a society without racism could look like.
On July 8, 2021, GiD will continue the series with a comic workshop with students from the Oberschule Dippoldiswalde, in which they will work together on questions of belonging.
GiD would like to invite you to the presentation of a book about a three-year comic art project “Frauenstimmen in Bildern” (Women’s voices in pictures). On September 28, 2021, Dresden artist Nazanin Zandi and TUD sociologist Youmna Fouad will speak at
Richters Buchhandlung about autobiographical, honest, and humorous picture stories that provide insights into the lives of women of different backgrounds, religions, and languages. The event will be streamed
live on YouTube and will take place as part of the Intercultural Days Dresden.
In addition, GiD is planning a workshop on social cohesion in Bautzen on October 16, 2021, together with many local actors.
