Training Course: "Digital Intersectional Creative education"
27-31 August 2022 | Kaprálův mlýn, Czech Republic
An international training course on the topic of intersectionality and using digital games in education.
There is a tendency to simplify reality and a lot of the current tools in youth work only address one dimension of oppression or inequality. We will propose an alternative approach, that would bring a more systemic and complex perspective into our daily work. The goal of this approach is to create awareness about intersecting forms of exclusion and make room for positive change in our work.
This training has two parts. The first part is dedicated to the potential of using gamification, in particular digital games, in educational settings to introduce complex concepts as, for example, intersectionality. The second part focuses on intersectionality as a key tool and its importance in youth work. We will reflect together on the concrete changes we can introduce in our professional and personal settings to build more inclusive communities.
