As most of the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we work and after halting our operation in planning events for several months we decided to go digital.
This will be our first ‘cultural café’ event in digital format (our second ever!) and even though we will not be physically in the same coffee house we will do our best to re-create that atmosphere via Zoom.
Yeah I know what you are thinking.. You have had enough lectures, seminars and meetings over the internet and the only thought might give you shudders. But fear not, we’ve got you covered! This will be different from your average Zoom event as we will combine parts in which we are all together – to smaller, more cozy discussions with groups of 4 to 5 people, just as if you were sitting with them at the same table in a café!
The key questions for this event’s topic:
- Are historical sins ever to be forgiven?
- Do we give focus to the right figures in history?
- How do we re-evaluate actions and behaviours from the recent past within today’s society?
This Thursday, the 2:nd of July, we are going to discuss how we learn from history and how we reflect on historical events in today’s climate. We are going to question how actions and behaviors from the recent past fit within today’s society and whether we give focus to the right figures in history. Are historical sins ever to be forgiven? Let’s discuss!
The Cultural café is going to be held like this:
- You sign-up via the form (link below) and we will then email you a zoom-link so you can access.
- At the event – our hosts will welcome you and guide you through the topic
- At a later stage they will split you into smaller groups where you will get the chance to share your thoughts about given questions with 3 or 4 others.
- Towards the end of the event, we gather together once again and open to a floor discussion where we can share our thoughts with all the other participants.
We are not here to debate. We are here to have discussions and challenge our mindset. No answers are right or wrong, and the point of the events isn’t to come up with the right answers or test your knowledge. We are just here to discuss in a friendly atmosphere and question our assumptions.
Book yourself a spot for the event by signing up here!
As this is our very first event of the kind, we really encourage feedback on how we can make future cultural cafés even better.
