Press Training with the Aktivistinnen-Agentur at the RTG Contradiction Studies

On November 29th, an interview and podium training with Emily Laquer from the Aktivistinnen-Agentur took place on the premises of the RTG Contradiction Studies. During this training, the members of the RTG were able to learn how to communicate their scientific findings and research results to the press confidently and assuredly, be it on television, radio or in the newspaper. The training was illustrated with concrete examples and exercises.

Aktivistinnen-Agentur e.V. is an independent, non-partisan and non-profit association by and for activists. They offer training, coaching, mediation and workshops.

Organized by: Caro Zieringer, Lilli Hasche und Samia Mohammed

space

“According to Niklas Luhmann, space is a ‘special facility to negate contradictions’”.

Julia Lossau
power and resistance

“Michel Foucault says: “Where there is power, there is resistance, and […] this resistance is never in a position of exteriority in relation to power” (History of Sexuality I, The Will to Knowledge, 1976, p. 95)”

Gisela Febel
articulate

“Contradictions need to be articulated in order to exist.”

Martin Nonhoff
earthing

“Geography as a discipline stands for a certain worlding, if not earthing, of contradiction, in both theoretical and pracitcal respect.”

Julia Lossau
relational

“At first I thought contradiction was always a relational thing; but the more I ponder it, the more I think contradiction creates relation.”
