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
