“This changed us – now we’re changing!”

CURRENT

At the symposium "This has changed us - now we are changing!" on 6 May, we entered into a critical exchange with cultural mediators and interested parties. At the beginning, experts like Caroline Culen (Kinderligateam), Irene Brickner (DerStandard), Sabir Ansari (BundesJugendVertretung), Robert Nocacko (MS Johann-Hoffmann-Platz) and Anna Larcher (Volkshilfe Österreich) gave inputs from their fields of work. Afterwards, everyone discussed together what effects crises, such as the Covid 19 pandemic and/or war, have on the lives of children and young people and what roles arts education plays in this. In particular, access, demands and benefits of arts education were critically questioned and possible solutions identified. The joint thinking and discussion on site and the relaxed get-together afterwards were a great enrichment and stimulation. We thank all those who took part in the exchange.

PROGRAM

„This changed us – now we’re changing!“
Cultural education with children and young people in times of Covid-19 and beyond

Impulses, World Café and Discussion

There is always change? Yes, but not like this! The pandemic has turned the work of cultural mediation upside down: it is once again more up to the parental home whether “culture” takes place or not, opportunities and limits of digitalization, shifts in the relationship between private and public space, etc. Also the Ukraine war is causing great uncertainty and anxiety among children and families. All this demands a lot from cultural mediators. So what can cultural education look like? How can it take this into account? How can it actually reach, move, and support children?
We ask what changes are taking place now and in the future and how the importance of children in the cultural sector can be increased. Participating discussants come from the fields of culture, psychology, media, social affairs and education.
