Care Space Month
Against Racism and anti-Semitism:
4 workshops at Folkwang
(for students)
Collective Care Space
“The Collective Care Space” is about international students coming together in a caring space. There will be two workshops, in which students can experience support and exchange their experiences / questions and worries as international students. What can we do to keep ourselves mentally healthy? How can we deal with discrimination and feel empowered? How can we practice supporting and caring for ourselves and each other? These are some of the questions we will work on in the workshops, in a relaxed atmosphere.
In the workshops we will talk to each other, learn new healthy strategies and do exercises for reflecting on ourselves and also for relaxation.
The workshops will be taught by Safiya Yon. She is a social artist and specialist for mental health. As someone with an international background herself, she knows how difficult it can be, being new to Germany and is passionate about supporting other students with international backgrounds. It is for this reason, she aims to create safe spaces of collective care, in which international and BIPoC students can feel seen, heard and supported.
