UNESCO Chair Refugee Integration through Languages and the Arts (RILA): Spring School 2022 programme (FREE Hybrid Event)

In this year's Spring School, we draw out the concept of values a little further, by exploring the following questions and provocations:

  • Do we need shared values? How do we decide what these are? Where do we get them from?
  • How do values interact with identity or identities. How do identities interact with each other?
  • How do identities and/or values change in response to different or shifting relationships with people/places/objects?
  • In what way are our values shaped by the environment, by our and others’ cultures, by our experiences and understanding and by histories? And how do our values shape them in turn?
  • Can we employ shared values to bring people together? How do we do this?

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think about your own values and how they shape your identity, or identities?

This year the Spring School is linking conceptually with the Festival of Europe (FoE), and is one of a series of inter-connected events which take place throughout the UK from May to September 2022 called The Summer of Europe. FoE will be an opportunity to reflect upon and will create a memorable experience of exploring European identity. This European identity, or multiple identities, is/are sometimes complimentary, sometimes conflicting. We cannot remove conflict, but we can transform it. We can discuss our identity, critique it, pick it up and examine it from different angles.

The UNESCO Chair is also partnering on The People's Global Summit, an initiative seeking to shape a Global Values Declaration for a new eco-social world that will be delivered to the United Nations High-Level Political Forum in July 2022 and will create a catalyst for further global action.

The Festival of Europe is to be a celebration of culture, values and hope. The People’s Global Summit seeks to co-build a conversation on the creation of globally shared values.

In this year's Spring School, we draw out the concept of values a little further, by exploring the following questions and provocations:
