I lead the project.
I look forward to finding out how teenagers can make a school a more tolerant and positive place. Teenagers’ own, often powerful, roles they play in interventions are often overlooked, and I want to instead study how we can give them maximum possibilities to make a positive change in their schools. I also really like about this project that we will working together with teenagers, the schools, and others who work with youths: it moves away from just “pure” research and actually tries to make an impact. We plan to do this in many ways, working for example locally with social workers in many neighbourhoods throughout Europe, online game developers and even writers for youths.
I draw comics.
You will mostly see me during the data collection, because I am partly responsible for it. To plan the data collection and to present the project, I am in touch with your principal, your school social workers and your teachers. Why do I do all of this? A part of my dissertation is taking place in the project. After a successful dissertation, you receive a PhD. But this is not why I do this. I work in the project and am at your side as your contact person, because I am interested in what you have to tell us, meaning how you answer the questions that we ask you. Not you as an individual, but you as a school collective.
I am looking forward to both the data collection and the prevention. Regarding the data collection, I am curious if the ideas that we developed are actually true. This is something we can only test with the help of your answers (fyi: you are the experts!). Moreover, I am excited to see the solution strategies and school-wide actions that are being planned by the focus group.
I believe in ghost/ mystery stories that I am being told. I (used to) believe all the stories in the tv show “Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction”.
As a student research assistant in the department of Developmental Psychology, I support the project regarding the planning, organisation and implementation.
The project tries to bridge the gap between research and practice, which is a challenge that is great fun and can bring added value for both sides. I like working in the project because it offers a wide variety of tasks, ranging from content-related considerations and discussions to organizing and conducting the surveys. There are always new tasks coming up, so it never gets boring. I look forward to hearing the ideas of the young people taking part in the prevention on how they can make their school a more tolerant place!
I do handpoke tattoos.
I play the flute in a church band.
I help in the preparation of the project and in the data collection in the schools. I also take care of the website and social media.
I am especially looking forward to meeting and getting to know many of you at school. I am curious to see how you like the project and what ideas you have for shaping your school. I am sure you will come up with great actions for the school and help make your school a place of tolerance and togetherness. Together as a team, data collection is a lot of fun – and I hope you enjoy it, too!
I have acted as an extra in crime dramas a few times, and my biggest performance was as a nun.
I am active around the data collections as well as in the social media area of the project.
I like working with you students and getting to know many different perspectives on the topic of tolerance. I am looking forward to experiencing the project as it develops and I am excited about the development of your networks and actions.
I’m a real early riser and don’t like sleeping late.
I work as a research assistant on the project and was involved in coordinating data collection, implementing interventions and designing the manual. Now I run the workshops together with Juliane.
I think this project is so important because school can be a crucial place for the socialisation and development of values and norms in children and young people. And especially in an increasingly polarised society like ours, it is essential to promote respectful and discrimination-sensitive behaviour among pupils as effectively as possible.
I work for the Association for Education in Lower Saxony (VNB e.V.) and run the workshop “Shaping School Together – Further Training on the Together for Tolerance Prevention Project” with school professionals on the use of web tools and project information. For the project, I developed the individual prevention sessions and the project handbook in cooperation with the University of Osnabrück.
How can respectful coexistence in schools be strengthened? How can dialogue and cooperation between pupils be promoted? How can schools be shaped collectively? These and other questions are the focus of the training course, to which we cordially invite you.
I support the coordination and preparation of the project, including preparing materials for school interventions.
I believe that we all have the right to feel safe and happy in our schools, as well as in all other places and activities we participate in and where we live. This is regardless of our beliefs, our background, the language we speak or other circumstances. I like this project because it encourages people to get involved and share their ideas. It’s also great that it gives students and young people the opportunity to feel heard! I’m really excited to hear what you think of the project and what activities you’ll be doing at your school!
I have MANY different hobbies, ranging from crafts and painting to rollerskating dancing.
As a student assistant, I play a supporting role in the project. Among other things, I help to collect and evaluate feedback on the project’s implementation in order to better understand the challenges involved and where there is potential for optimisation. In this way, we are helping to ensure that teachers can implement the project independently in the long term.
I find the sustainability aspect of the intervention particularly exciting: Together for Tolerance aims to support schools in promoting inclusive coexistence even beyond the project period.
As a student assistant, I help out in various areas during the project with a relatively flexible schedule. I already had the opportunity to assist with the last data collection as an intern, and now I am excited to see how the project develops and how schools manage to implement it independently.
I particularly enjoy experiencing the intersection between research and practice, and I think the project’s goal of promoting tolerance and coexistence is very important.
