Offers for UPB students and staff: Gaining the ability to speak and act in dealing with Antisemitism, Islamophobia and the Middle East conflict
In the current summer semester 2024 and in the winter semester 2024/25, the Central Equal Opportunities Officer, together with the Diversity Officer and the Central Student Advice Centre of Paderborn University, is inviting all members of the university to a series of events.
In cooperation with the Centre for Comparative Theology and Cultural Studies (ZeKK), local partners such as the Service Agency for Anti-Discrimination Work, Advice on Racism and Antisemitism (SABRA) and the Anti-Discrimination Advice and Intervention on Antisemitism and Racism (ADIRA) as well as the Information and Documentation Centre for Anti-Racism Work in NRW (IDA NRW), they are offering various formats dealing with the topics of Antisemitism and anti-Muslim racism in the period from June 2024 to January 2025. Thanks to the expertise of the invited speakers, the aim is to provide all interested parties with specialist knowledge and perspectives on how to deal with the Middle East conflict in everyday study and work life on campus.
Events for students
365体育_足球比分网￥投注直播官网 (in presence) on the topic of antisemitism for students in summer semester 2024
Date: Wednesday, 26 June 2024 (2pm - 4pm)
Title: "What is antisemitism? Recognise, name, act"
Speakers: Johanna Lauke and Maria Lessik (ADIRA NRW)
Location: Seminar room on the UPB campus, available by email after pre-registration
Whether as an insult, joke or prejudice or in the context of assemblies - anti-Semitism is also a current problem at universities. However, it is not always possible to recognise it and react appropriately. In order to gain confidence in dealing with anti-Semitic incidents, knowledge is needed both about its manifestations and about concrete counter-strategies. In the workshop, we will therefore look at the functions and characteristics of current forms of anti-Semitism and discuss successful strategies for action based on cases from the university context.

Event description: Modern Antisemitism manifests itself in various ways. Being able to recognise it in all its facets is the basis for being able to take further steps and measures against it. Since the terrorist attack by Hamas on 7 October 2023, the situation in Germany and worldwide has become even more complex. A new normality seems to be taking hold, in which Antisemitism is gradually becoming less taboo, while at the same time appearing more disinhibited and also gaining more space at universities.
