Giving Our Thanks to Zalando

 

On Monday, the 14th of August, a team from Zalando supported us in various projects. With their help we were able to plant flowers, repaint our hallway, polish a wooden chair, assemble aholder for our utensils, set up a bulletin board design, as well as, helping us offer a computer course. We would like to once again thank Zalando for the active and creative support.

Computer Workshop "Safe in Digital Media"

 

On the 22nd of August our new workshop series "Safe in Digital Media" was launched. The aim is to help and guide participants to handle digital media responsibly, especially regarding its content. The first topic was "Phishing", the stealing of sensitive data from the internet. The employees of Wayfair gave us a very informative presentation. We all have learned a lot and are looking forward to further lectures in these workshop series. The presentations will take place on VISIONEERS premises be, under the leadership of Sarah and Florian. Ongoing events can be found here. We are thankful for the promotion of our computer workshops at the Berlin House of Resources.

Cooperation in the Context of Religious Workshops

 

On 22. September 2017, we put our cooperation with the Friedenauer Community School forward: two classes will be joining our workshop for the next few weeks every Friday to actively discuss the following question: "What is the meaning of religion for me? For the company? For the story?". We want to thank the sponsors of WERTESTARTER and the the Berlin Land Commission against violence.
