“The workplace is the most important environment for most people’s health, whether it is a home, office, factory or forest.” (Kjellström 2007)

What is needed to act socially sustainably in organisations? Why is it considered a central ele-ment in postmodern work and organisation? How can a culture of trust be developed? In this seminar, basic principles will be analysed for a better understanding of main principles, including insights from humanistic labour research, attitude and methods of Theme-centered Interaction in groups (Cohn), questions of participation and resistance (Lewin), an understanding of the psycho-logical functions of groups (Foulkes), psychological implications of power and authority (McClel-land, Sennett), reflections on resonance and disposability (Rosa), as well as an analysis of ele-ments of a healthy work-life balance.

This training seminar is oriented on what is used and needed in practice. Therefore, the workshop setting is based on a group dynamic approach (Cohn). It counts on active participation and co-creative contributions in workshops to ensure the overall success of the trainings – also in case of going back to online sessions. Therefore, students assume responsibility for parts of a workshop (oral part, 3 ECTS) and possibly also practice professional skills of how to write a workshop doc-umentary (written part in case of 6 ECTS). In their preparation and follow-up, students in teams receive constructive counsel and feedback, as well as support by examples, checklists, literature etc.

No, perfect English is not mandatory! The seminar uses English as a lingua franca – coping with effects of the intercultural setting is an insightful part of the reflection within the course. Students are supported to express themselves, didactically and by the lecturer, and will improve their Eng-lish by the way.

This seminar is part of a series. Each part can be studied separately. To many, it makes sense to train workshop facilitation for some semesters on different subject matters…and is really fun!

Explicitly open for 1st semester students and above, recommended for 3rd semester Bachelor students before their internship and thesis, as well open for Master and international Erasmus students, and to students from other faculties. This course is limited to 20 participants.

2 SWS: Fortnightly, starting in the 2nd week of the term, Tuesdays 4-7 pm; 3 hours (s.t.). Please register reliable via Stud.IP for your participation.

Wenn Sie Interesse an Mobilität und internationalem Austausch haben und wissen wollen, wie die Welt außerhalb Deutschlands aussieht, dann können Sie das virtuell - also quasi klimaneutral, aber hautnah - am Beispiel Südafrika erleben.
Die Veranstaltung findet also als virtueller internationaler Austausch statt und richtet sich unabhängig von einem Auslandsaufenthalt an alle Studierenden, die Interesse an interkultureller Erfahrung haben.
Wir gehen ins Gespräch mit einer Person aus Kapstadt, Südafrika, aus der Coloured Community.
Wir beleuchten Themen wie die südafrikanischen „cultures“ (ethnische Gruppen in Südafrika), Rassismus, Apartheit, die Corona- Situation, Leben und Überleben, Frauen, Bildung und Chancen in Südafrika und südafrikanische Politik.
Es geht aber nicht in erster Linie um Informationsvermittlung, sondern um einen Austausch, bei dem sich die Teilnehmenden aus der Komfortzone heraus bewegen und einen Perspektivwechsel und bestehende Schubladen in Frage stellen können. Dabei sind genaues und wertschätzendes Zuhören und Fragestellen die wesentlichen Instrumente.
Die Veranstaltungssprache ist englisch, daher werden Sie auch die Gelegenheit haben, Ihre Kenntnisse in der flüssigen Umgangssprache (kein Slang!) zu verbessern.
Unsere Gesprächspartnerin lebt nicht privilegiert, hat Apartheid, Machtwechsel und den Aufbruch hautnah und engagiert miterlebt. Sie erzählt und kommentiert, was im heutigen Südafrika von den Hoffnungen geblieben ist und bringt uns Lebensumstände ganz nah, zu denen wir ansonsten nie Zugang haben würden.
Respekt, Geduld und die Bereitschaft, sich in gewisser Hinsicht „verstören“ zu lassen sind Voraussetzungen für diesen Austausch.
Unseren Austausch reflektieren wir gemeinsam meist am Ende eines Treffens.
Teilnahme begrenzt und bei Zusage verbindlich.

Whether it is coping with ‘Peak Oil’, meeting the challenge of climate change, helping farmers in poorer countries through fair trade, or finding ways to keep discarded products out of the landfills, sustainability issues are the biggest challenges facing businesses. The course shows how the complexities of sustainability issues can be integrated into marketing. The systematic, step-by-step approach of sustainability marketing involves: an analysis of socio-ecological priorities to complement conventional consumer and market research; an integration of ethical values into marketing strategy; the development of sustainability marketing strategies; a new consumer-oriented sustainability marketing mix of the ‘4 Cs’ (Customer Solutions, Communications, Customer Cost, Convenience) to replace the outmoded and producer-oriented ‘4 Ps’; and finally an analysis how innovation and marketing can go beyond responding to social change to contribute to a transformation to a more sustainable society. The course is ideally suited to both students and practitioners at many different levels and disciplines, including marketing, innovation, CSR, sustainability and environmental management.

In dieser videobasierten Selbstlernveranstaltung können Sie jederzeit einsteigen, in Ihrem eigenen Lerntempo die Videos durcharbeiten und den Prüfungstermin zum Abschluss der Lehrverantaltung frei wählen.

This hybrid class covers central topics in descriptive statistics and addresses both international students as well as students who wish to cover descriptive statistics in English. We will discuss applications of descriptive statistics in health sciences, cover measurement issues, empirical distributions and their graphic representation, learn how to discover statistical associations in tables and distributions, discuss independence and contingency based on the Chi-squared-distribution, apply concepts and measures to quantify associations, discuss covariation and correlation as well as regression and apply measures to identify proportional reduction in error measures. The class combines asynchronous video content (provided via online learning platform) with a synchronous troubleshooting/discussion forum.

In the 21st century, humanity is facing an increase of global social and health inequalities. Thus, it is important to understand both the historical perspective and the current political structures that created and perpetuated these inequalities. After an extensive introduction to global health and global health inequities, this course critically examines the causes of these inequalities. Finally, it explores several consequences of global inequities such as poverty, migration and the socioeconomic consequences of the covid-19.
