Who are you looking for?

5 offers

  1. Power-sensitive organisational development and process support

    For organisations that want diversity to be more than a mission statement.

    Who decides, who is heard, who is left out? Together with management and staff we look at structures, processes and culture: from job adverts and complaint procedures to working with partners in the Global South. The result is concrete steps that fit your organisation.

    Possible formats

    • Stocktaking with management and team
    • Strategy days and retreats
    • Support for a change process over several months
    • Advice on complaint procedures and safeguarding

    Suitable for: Organisations and teams

  2. Mediation and facilitation

    When things get difficult, or when many people need a say.

    We facilitate conferences, panels, participation processes and community dialogues so that everyone gets heard. In conflicts within teams, associations or between partners we act as mediators and keep an eye on the role that power and discrimination play.

    Possible formats

    • Facilitating events and participation processes
    • Mediation in team or association conflicts
    • Clarifying talks between partner organisations

    Suitable for: Organisations and teamsCommunities and initiatives

  3. Empowerment workshops

    Spaces where you do not have to explain who you are.

    For Black people, People of Colour and people with a refugee or migration background: safer spaces to share experiences, recognise one’s strengths, know one’s rights and get organised. For young people, parents, volunteers and professionals.

    Possible formats

    • Workshop for youth groups
    • Workshop series for adults, parents or volunteers
    • Exchange and networking meetings

    Suitable for: Communities and initiativesSchools and youth work

  4. Anti-racism and critical whiteness

    Understand racism, see your own position, act with more confidence.

    How does racism show up in everyday school, counselling, public administration or club life, even when nobody means it that way? We work with cases from your field, reflect on whiteness and privilege and practise how to respond in difficult moments.

    Possible formats

    • Introductory workshop for teams
    • Training for teachers and educators
    • In-depth sessions for management and HR

    Suitable for: Organisations and teamsSchools and youth work

    The world in the classroom, with voices from Uganda.

    Project days and series on the Sustainable Development Goals, Berlin’s colonial history, educational justice and decolonising knowledge, architecture and agriculture. Colleagues from Uganda join live, so that students talk with people from the Global South and not only about them.

    Possible formats

    • Project day for one class
    • Workshop series with a field trip
    • Training for teachers
    • Open evening event

    Suitable for: Schools and youth workCommunities and initiatives
