How can I recognize exclusion in everyday school life? How does exclusion currently manifest itself, in particular in the context of Antisemitism? How can I further develop my stance? What preventive measures are effective in schools?

This specialist conference invites school teams made up of teachers, educational staff, and management teams to exchange experiences, to respond professionally to current discussions, and to become familiar with concepts of prevention and intervention. Practice-oriented experts from various fields will present educational materials and methods, focus on social learning in schools, and address complex issues towards further developing a respectful school culture.
