In June 2024 STUBE-BW invites you to the following seminars:

Creation Stories - Living Books on the Origin of the World and Nature
22 June I  Tübingen

Our actions and our behaviour are determined by our convictions. Our dealings with nature are determined by the position we accord it. We ourselves are shaped by our upbringing, by the culture in which we grew up, and many rarely think about the circumstances of their lives, but live from generation to generation according to what they were born with. In all world cultures, there are creation myths that structure social forms and social order. We would like to explore this on this day and listen to four different creation stories.

From a more Christian perspective, Pastor Romeo Edel will take us into the story in which the world was created by a male creative force in 6 days. With the educational speaker Saron Cabero, we will discover the concept of Pachamama, in which the creative force is represented by a female element. With Komlan Batema, we will approach African cosmology and learn more about the concept of Ubuntu, which is often described as "I am because you are". 

After lunch, 2 workshops will be offered. In Verena's workshop we will deal with the concept of loss and damage caused by climate change. In Saron's workshop we will deal with a symbolic ritual from Latin America based on the 4 elements earth, fire, air and water.

Finally, we will go canoeing together on the Neckar.
