Text: "Demokratie verteidigen - Widersprüche aushalten. der Antiweibliche Komplex im Rechtsextremismus. Analysen und Gegenstrategien."

What’s it all about? The conference will focus on the following questions:

- What kinds of attacks are currently directed against women* and against the goals of a feminism that aims for equality, self-determination, and the dismantling of power structures and violence?

- What strategies for prevention and resistance can be developed in the fields of education, counseling, social work, schools, higher education, and civil society?

The goals are professional exchange, the analysis and contextualization of current developments, and a fruitful mutual exchange.
