Basic module: Understanding discrimination and intersectionality

Start: 12.08.2026 End: 13.08.2026 Cost: join for

Discrimination is a multifaceted concept that is understood in different ways. However, a shared understanding is essential for effective anti-discrimination work and collaborative partnerships with community-based counseling services. In this workshop, we will examine fundamental and current phenomena of discrimination.
In addition to reflecting on various dimensions of discrimination, we discuss intersectionality as an analytical approach in comparison to multiple discrimination and its relevance for counseling practice. A particular focus is on the recognizability of racism and its normalization in society.
Note:

Participation in this basic module is one of the mandatory prerequisites for obtaining the certificate for consultants in community-based anti-racism counseling.

Six years after Berlin's State Anti-Discrimination Act (LADG) came into force, Rhineland-Palatinate has become the next German state to pass a similar law: the "State Law for Equal Opportunities, Democracy and Diversity (LCDV)." A draft law is also currently under consideration in North Rhine-Westphalia and is going through the parliamentary process. In Baden-Württemberg, however, a long-standing political process – despite a broad civil society alliance – has failed for the time being. And in Lower Saxony, an alliance for an LADG was recently formed, also supported by anti-discrimination activists. So there's a lot happening…

This workshop combines an introduction to the fundamentals of the AGG with a critical perspective on power dynamics in organizations.
