What may seem like a joke, a comment or a habit to one person can contribute to a feeling of exclusion for another. Microaggressions and processes of othering have an impact on how young people view themselves, how safe they feel and whether they feel they belong.
What may seem like a joke, a comment or a habit to one person can contribute to a feeling of exclusion for another. Microaggressions and processes of othering have an impact on how young people view themselves, how safe they feel and whether they feel they belong.
During this webinar organised by Rutgers, Atria and COC Nederland, experts, professionals and people with lived experience will share insights from the ‘Small things become big things’ campaign. We’ll explore the influence of social norms, the role of professionals and practical conversation techniques that help to open up discussions about stereotypical views without conversations becoming deadlocked or heated.
You’ll gain inspiration, concrete examples and immediately applicable tools for your work with young people.
Would you like to gain a better understanding of how microaggressions and exclusion affect (LGBTI+) young people?
Would you like to better support young people in discussions about stereotypes, gender and sexual diversity?
Are you looking for practical tools to address hurtful comments without polarising discussions?
Are you curious about how social norms contribute to feelings of belonging or, conversely, of being excluded?
And how you, as a professional, can encourage positive change?
