Meetings

Meetings between generations

Passing on traditional knowledge, making room for questions, bringing generations together.

Why meetings?

Many young people growing up in the diaspora rarely have the chance to talk directly with the bearers of tradition. The meetings aim to offer a respectful, safe setting in which questions can be asked openly.

Our principles

Respectful, open dialogue
Different views are heard; no one is judged.
Every question counts
Young people’s curiosity is the starting point.
Open to women and men
The meetings will be open to everyone.
Safeguarding young people
Activities for minors will only take place once a safeguarding policy is in place.

Separate from personal guidance

The meetings are open educational and cultural events. Personal religious questions belong to the planned, separately protected religious guidance service.
