ABOUT US
NRW Mobile Solidarity Academy
NRW Mobile DA-DE aims for inquiring commons encounters in everyday life through collaboration with civil society actors, activists, prominent cultural figures and solidarity with dismissed academics as well scholars in exile. The diffusion of experiential knowledge, personal histories, diasporic encounters as well as daily confrontations will form the backbone of the socio-cultural capital created in pathways of generations. A by-product of these series will be edited versions of recorded sessions uploaded online for further dissemination and open archiving as well as an edited book. The active participation of unionized academics, journalists, civil society actors, young workers as well as dismissed colleagues in Turkey via online conferencing systems will also add to the inclusive and critical debates with interdisciplinary focus on comparative axes.
