[un]learning structures #3 | basics workshop: accessibility as an attitude

This workshop provides a basic awareness of disability and attitudes and gives impulses for implementation in practice. The workshop will deal with the German legal situation as well as social views on disability, non-disabled privileges, discrimination-sensitive language and explanations of the terms rejectionism, inclusion and accessibility.

Anne Rieger and Noa Winter jointly lead the Berlin network project making a difference, which aims to promote self-determined work by deaf and disabled artists in dance and performance. They also advise cultural institutions and artists on anti-ableist work processes. As a team, they provide insights into both the lived experience of disability and barriers and the possibilities of actively using one's own non-disabled privileges.

The events in the frame of [un]learning structures - curated and organized by nara virgens, epona hamdan & melmun bajarchuu - tackle questions of  how to produce in a way that is sensitive towards different forms of discriminiation and critical of power structures in the performing arts with a focus on accessibility from an anti-ableist perspective, racism through a structural lense, thinking about how sustainability intersects with these two themes – and how these approaches can be put into practice. more about the event series [un]learning structures

The workshop is aimed at protagonists in artistic production within the independent performing arts who want to reflect on and redesign or further develop existing production processes. With its practical focus, the workshop aims at the application of the presented contexts in existing production processes, which the participants shape or redesign in their individual work environment.

This workshop has a limited number of participants. If the event is already fully booked on our website, you can contact martin by mail, who will keep a waiting list and contact you if there are any free places.
