Workshop weekend on intersectional, anti-ableist practice and collective care, in cooperation with Theater der Unterdrückten Vienna.

Together with Juliana Akankwatsa (Community Organizer & Human Rights Expert from Uganda) and Samuel Flach (Community Organizer, Disabled Person) from Gemeinwohlwohnen, we explore Care not just in our heads, but with our bodies, stories, and experiences.

Using methods from Community Organizing, Theater of the Oppressed, and collective body work, we engage with Care, Power, Ableism, Racism, Dependency, and Self-Determination – and develop concrete ideas for caring communities.

Please read through all the information carefully and then register via the registration form!
