Studium Generale: Democracy Fitness (EN)

For a muscular democracy

Democracy is something you have to practise and develop; it's like a muscle. In this practical workshop, you will discover ten essential democratic skills for better cooperation and increased democratic self-confidence. These are not only useful for a well-functioning society, but also extremely handy in your work group, among your friends, or in the workplace. These muscles include active listening, empowerment, disagreement, compromise, bravery, and mobilising each other.
During the interactive workshop, we will explore all ten muscles. Then, based on group choice, we will train two of these muscles in a brisk workout.

Registration for this workshop 13:00 - 14:45 is free for everyone interested and necessary, please sign up HERE

In cooperation with Saxion CMR, ABRR, learning community Leefbare stad Deventer + Stadslab, & Etty Hillesum Centrum (Democracy fitness is an initiative of Bureau Burgerberaad and Stichting Nieuwe Helden)
