Here you will find a list of past and upcoming workshops and events organized by our association.

We consider political educational work and the development of an anti-racist mindset to be essential parts of a free and open society. That is why we want our workshops and events to contribute to sensitizing people to the causes of displacement, global injustices, and realities of refugees’ lives.

Our aim is not to speak for or on the behalf of refugees, but rather to create spaces for encounters and dialogue in which people can speak for themselves.


»Die Wahrheit aus meiner Sicht«
A reading with Moutasm Alyounes
Date and time: 23 February 2024, 18:00
Venue:
Kellerperle

Moutasm Alyounes is 25 years old and comes from Raqqa in Syria. There he was living a very normal life. Until the war. In 2015, he fled to Germany and came to Essen. Today, Moutasm reached his Abitur (A-Level) and has written a book about his life story, which was published in 2021: »Die Wahrheit aus meiner Sicht« (»The Truth from My Point of View«).

With his book, Moutasm Alyounes aims to educate people. Because the topic of flight is often viewed too narrowly: »I am just one example of many people who have had to leave their homes. There is no such thing as a model refugee, but rather many individual stories.«
