Training Description
Professionals and partner organizations on the ground strive for cooperation in partnership in order to achieve shared development goals. However, this cooperation occurs in a post-/ colonial context of historically grown and persisting socio-economic inequalities and injustices. Therefore, using a critique of power to examine our own scopes of action is a prerequisite for co-operating in solidarity towards a sustainable world community.
In this training, we will look at theoretical foundations of and practical experience with power sharing. We invite you to reflect on your own role in the global context and the privileges that go along with it. Together we want to develop ideas and approaches for how we can use our respective power of action and change for greater global equality of opportunities.
