IWCN and Make it in the North are organising a workshop around an important topic: discrimination at work. It’s crucial that everyone, as citizens or residents in NL, understands their rights and responsibilities and knows what to do when faced with such situations. This engaging workshop is led by Waard, an organization that educated people about inclusion and diversity in Groningen.

Mention examples of situations of discrimination at work or while looking for a job.

While this workshop is mostly about discrimination theory, we will also discuss discrimination through real life scenarios with examples of real life or through submission of your own case if you have one and feel like sharing it. (Sharing a case is not mandatory. Everyone is welcome participate in the workshop wether you have a case or not). Please also take into account that the session would be mostly focused in work related issues.

Please add the note in the registration form telling: “I have a study case for the workshop”. We will put you in contact with the host from Waard who will do the activity (while keeping your privacy in mind) and we will discuss them during the workshop if you agree. (Sharing a case is not mandatory. Everyone is welcome participate in the workshop weather you have a case or not).
