The preparatory workshop is aimed to collectively discuss and reflect on the article "Rethinking Diversity in Academic Institutions: For a Repoliticization of Difference as a Matter of Social Justice" by Veronika Zablotsky and Vanessa Thompson. This preparatory workshop will then be followed by the workshop titled “Making Diversity Real?: The Limits and Possibilities of Diversity Politics/Policies in German Higher Education System” and led by Veronika Zablotsky and Vanessa Thompson (the date to be announced). We aim to gather questions for the speakers and enhance our discussion and understanding by incorporating additional texts related to diversity and inclusivity in institutions and higher education.
Participants are encouraged to bring questions that reflect upon their experiences and perceptions of diversity and inclusivity that they witness within the institutions they are a part of, beginning from the GCSC and JLU, and extending to other academic institutions such as ones that they have been previously part of.
This preparatory Workshop will be lead by: Dr. Pınar Gümüş, Archana Ravi, Erhena Dugarova and Helene Hauser.
