3/ Workshops



> a. Card game workshop, “Playing for Integration”, by Anne Fox & Line Mark
Rugholt



Fox and Rugholt invite you to play a version of George Simons’ Diversophy
cross-cultural card game. The Diversophy cross cultural training game has
been used over many years to prepare employees and individuals about to be
sent on assignment in different cultures. The game has had global success
and its founder, George Simons, in 2015, wondered if it could be adapted to
serve a different purpose in the context of the refugee crisis unfolding at
the time. This workshop is the outcome of this adaptation made to fit the
context of meetings between Danish residents and newly settled refugees.



> b. Participatory theatre workshop, “Forum Play on Cross-Cultural
Communication Challenges” by Birgitte Ravn Olesen and a group of refugees



In this workshop, the performing group invites participants to a search for
possible ways to handle communication challenges experienced by the group
themselves. The workshop is based on Augusto Boal’s ‘Theatre of the
oppressed’, which is a method to “discuss in praxis”, that is to try
different ways of acting in order to find ways to shake or transform the
presented communication challenges. In the Theatre of the Oppressed, ‘the
audience’ becomes active, as actors, while they explore, show, analyse and
transform the reality in which they are living. This workshop includes
presentation of Ravn Olesen’s paper, titled, I Have a Suggestion: Forum
Play as collaborative and situated knowledge production.



4/ Film screenings with author presentations and discussion



“Click to Remain” by Valirie Kittlitz & Maren Wickwire

“Vision of Europe” by Mike Latto

“HotSpot” by Tony Maslic

“Ten Europes” by Damien Stankiewicz
