Workshop for pupils about migration and displacement

31.05.17, 10:30

“Do you have coke in Syria? Do you use a microwave for cooking?” These were some of the questions posed to the sixteen year old Anas after her arrival in Vienna. This example shows that many people in Vienna have quite diffuse images when it comes to cultures and geographical characteristics they are not really familiar with. It also highlights the importance of exchanging knowledge about migration and displacement.
The goal of this participatory workshop, aimed towards children between the age of 12 to 18 years, is to create awareness on the topics of migration and displacement and encourage transfer of knowledge and mutual learning as more and more pupils at our schools have personal experiences in regard to migration and displacement.

31.05.2017, 10.30–13.30 and upon request
Participants: 8 to max. 25
Suggested age: 12–18 years
German only!
