Argumentation Trainings

Content

The argumentation training against right-wing slogans seeks answers to aggressive / stereotypical / marginalising statements and offers an opportunity to collect arguments and practise counter-strategies together.
Please note: training sessions are held in German. Instead of whisper translation, training sessions in other languages can be requested.

We collect well-known "slogans" - often discriminatory, generalising, catchphrase-like statements, such as "All black people are...", "Women should...", etc. These are introduced in practice situations and possible ways of reacting to them are tested. Communication strategies are worked out by subsequently analysing them on an emotional, rhetorical and content level and by developing accurate arguments. We also collect arguments that can be used in current discourse and election campaigns. This enables us to stand up for humane behaviour in everyday life and in deliberately targeted discussions.

Please write to us, if you want to participate in a training in English: info@wir-gegen-rechts.at We would also love to offer trainings in other languages - if you or any comrades would be able to offer trainings after a short train the trainer session in English or German, please write us too!
