**Embodied Consent** **Lernen über Grenzen und Kommunikation and communication** mit ***Karl-Henrik Sahlén*** für **LGBTQIA+** **Kostenlos mit [Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/embodied-consent/w51-2025/)** 🔵 Sich seiner Grenzen bewusst zu sein und sein Einverständnis oder Nicht-Einverständnis auszudrücken, sind wichtige Fähigkeiten im Leben, aber wir haben nicht oft die Gelegenheit, die Fähigkeit des Einverständnisses auf die gleiche Weise zu üben wie andere Fähigkeiten, wie Singen, Sport treiben oder eine Sprache lernen. Bei Consent geht es um viel mehr als ein einfaches Ja oder Nein. Wenn wir die Zustimmung dekonstruieren, entdecken wir, wie wir unsere wahren Wünsche kommunizieren können, und hören auf, Dinge zu wählen, die wir nicht wollen. Durch Diskussionen, Bewegung und Partnerspiele werden wir Werkzeuge entwickeln, um körperliche Wünsche auszudrücken und zu verhandeln und durch praktische Übungen Grenzen zu setzen. Dieser Workshop ist für Menschen aller Körpergrößen, Geschlechter und Hintergründe offen und einladend. Es handelt sich um einen nicht-sexuellen Workshop bei dem, ohne Druck, Kommunikation und Berührung geübt werden können. Es geht genauso darum, wirklich Ja zu sagen und es auch so zu meinen, wie es darum geht, Nein zu sagen! Wenn du noch nicht an einem Workshop zum Thema Consent im Village teilgenommen hast, ist es jetzt an der Zeit! Diese Erfahrung wird dir nicht nur helfen, sich in der we are village Conmmunity zurechtzufinden, sondern sie wird dich auch dazu befähigen, diese Werte in dein Leben zu übertragen. Gemeinsam wollen wir eine auf Consent ausgerichtete Gemeinschaft mit gemeinsamen Werten aufbauen und dabei die Verantwortung des Einzelnen für die Einhaltung dieser Grundsätze betonen. Unser oberstes Ziel ist es, gesunde Beziehungen zu fördern und eine integrative Community für eine bessere, vernetzte Zukunft zu schaffen. **Hinweise** * **Anmeldung**: Eine verbindliche Anmeldung über unsere **[Webseite](https://wearevillage.org/shop/embodied-consent/w26-2025)** ist erforderlich. Die Teilnehmerzahl ist auf 18 Personen begrenzt, um die Qualität des Austauschs zu gewährleisten. * **Sprache**: dieseer Workshop ist auf Deutsch durchgeführt. Dieser Workshop wird abwechselnd von einem deutschsprachigen und einem englischsprachigen Lehrer geleitet, um ein perfektes Verständnis des Themas zu gewährleisten. Bitte wähle deine Sitzung nach unserem Zeitplan. * **Kosten**: Die Veranstaltung ist kostenlos. 🔵 **Embodied Consent** **Learning about boundaries and communication** Being aware of your boundaries and expressing your consent or non-consent are essential skills in life, but we don’t often get a chance to actually practice consent skills in the same way we practice other skills, like singing, playing sports or learning a language. Consent is about much more than a simple yes or no. When we deconstruct consent, we discover how to communicate our true desires and stop choosing the things we don’t. Through discussion, movement and partner games, we will build tools to express and negotiate physical desires and set boundaries through the use of practical exercises. This workshop is inclusive and welcoming to individuals of all body sizes, genders, and background. This is a non-sexual workshop, and great, low pressure situation in which to practice communication and touching. It’s as much about how to truly say yes and mean it as it is about saying no! If you’ve not yet taken a consent workshop at the village, now is the time! This experience will not only help you navigate within the we.are.village community, but it will also equip you to carry these values into your life. Together, we aim to nurture a consent-centered community with shared values, emphasizing individual responsibility in upholding these principles. Our ultimate goal is to foster healthy relationships and create an inclusive community for a better, more connected future. **General Information** * **Registration**: max. 18 participants with mandatory registration **[through our website](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/embodied-consent/w51-2025)**. Limiting the number of participants is necessary to ensure the quality of the process. * **Language**: This workshop is conducted in German. To ensure a better understanding of the subject, it is led alternately by a German-speaking teacher and an English-speaking teacher. Please select the workshop that best suits your language needs. * **Cost**: Free of charge

Join this **Interview Simulation** session — to sharpen the skills for both interviews **and** architectural pitches. 💡 How it works The event is split into three parts: 1. **Most common behavioral & HR questions** \- you will receive a printed list of behavioral/HR questions and we brainstorm tips on how to prepare for them 2. **Interview Simulation (10 minute rounds)** – One participant acts as the interviewee and answers a round of behavioral and design-focused questions. Each other participant gets to ask him one interview question. 3. **Feedback Round** – The group provides feedback on communication, structure, and clarity. Constructive criticism is encouraged. 💡You will be asked: * **Behavioral questions** (“Tell me about yourself”, “Describe a challenge you faced...”) * **Technical questions** (based on your tech stack) * **Light design problems** (high-level reasoning, not code) No need to prepare anything in advance — just bring curiosity and an open mind. Feel free to bring your CV if you’d like feedback from others, or share a few words if you’re currently job hunting. If so, we will also brainstorm answers to more common questions that you were asked. Whether you’re preparing for an interview or simply want to grow as a software designer or architect, this session is for you.

**'Where should we begin'** is a game of stories created by Esther Perel. It is perfect for people who like meaningful conversations. Let's have a warm Christmas Spirit situp together and reflect on the 2025 year. We will be pulling cards and answering questions about our relations, desires, memories or plans. Participants will have chips and can put any card aside if they find the question too intimate. Some by-default rules to keep the communication honest and open: * **show empathy,** be tactful and accept the answers the way they are * **ask questions** if you would like to develop the topic * **be on time** as we start getting to know each other from the very beginning *This event requires a minimum donation of €5*
