Training XVI
An Investigation into Collective Work Processes for Self-Determination
The sixteenth training as part of the Trainings for the Not-Yet is with Hamada al-Joumah and Jasmine Eid-Sabbagh, and takes place 27 November–1 December 2019 (Wednesday–Sunday).
This training focuses on discussions, collective readings, presentations, and exercises for developing a resource box for collective working and decision-making process.
Based on their different experiences of working in the Palestinian refugee camp of Burj al-Shamali, through this training activist Hamada al-Joumah and artist Yasmine Eid-Sabbagh investigate avenues for collective working processes that foster self-determination.
For those living in a condition of transience, such as refugees, migrants, the stateless, and the politically dispossessed, the question of self-determination – the power or ability to make a decision for oneself, but also as a nation or people to determine its own form of government –stands at the heart of any discussion of governance. Yet it is also an extremely problematic concept, as it can function as a neoliberal device for shifting responsibility to the individual, and thus rendering structural violence invisible. What are different ways of understanding processes of self-determination in different contexts? And how do people organize and work collectively in these various circumstances?
When: 27 November–1 December 2019 (Wednesday–Sunday) Wednesday–Friday, 15–18 hrs and Saturday–Sunday, 14–17 hrs, followed by dinner at 18 hrs on weekdays and preceded by lunch at 13 hrs at the weekend in the Basic Activist Kitchen.
Participation:
This is a five-day training. It is possible to join on individual days, although attending the training in its entirety is encouraged.
