Workshop description
Meritocracy, a big word, hard to pronounce, and yet a driving belief of many aspects of our social life today. Broader conversation surrounding (social) class and the effects it has on us, as individuals, and the society we live in, have surfaced recently. These discussions and this workshop challenge the belief in meritocracy, the idea that solely talent and effort influence our futures. We have to look behind the curtain and ask about class and its effects on shaping our possibilities in education, social enagement, and as citizen of Europe.

Jule Lux
I identify as white cis women and currently study at university. I appreciate everyone who is interested in the topic. Most of all I want to give intersectional and personal perspectives room. Keep in mind that we want to explore personal stories as well, if this puts pressure on you or you do not feel safe please feel free to take a step back at any time or let me know.
