The project aims to foster understanding and awareness of the different roles in the school system, particularly focusing on the roles of class and school representatives.

In the workshop, participants learn a practically applicable methodology that combines peer case consultation with drama education work. This solution-oriented moderation method can be used in future challenging conflicts to analyze problems with student groups, try out new solution strategies, and thereby expand their repertoire of actions.
Training duration: 5–8 hours

Developing social competence through democratic engagement
In many federal states, the class council is already mandatory, yet it is regularly implemented in only a few schools. The class council helps children and adolescents develop social skills, strengthening the sense of community. This training focuses on practicing democratic action, providing input on the topic and exploring it further through workshops. Staff members collectively experience the advantages of a class council and reflect on the learning experiences already gained.
Training duration: 4 hours

The professional development program 'Strong Faculty' aims to address challenging everyday situations in schools through peer case consultation. First, a story from the teachers’ real-life experiences is presented to the entire faculty through role-play. The faculty then has the opportunity to develop possible solutions for the protagonist’s dilemma and try them out within the scene. In the second part of the program, teachers have the chance to develop scenes based on conflicts from their own experience, present them to the faculty, collaboratively explore solutions, and finally test these solutions within the scenes.

The project for early childhood education centers is a theatre-based educational program in which the contents of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child are presented through puppet and figure theatre. The theatre scenes depict various conflicts, which are then discussed and reflected upon with the children. The children develop their own strategies for action and practice them through different exercises and interactive theatre activities. The aim is to expand children’s repertoire of actions, strengthen democratic values, and raise awareness of children’s rights. Additionally, the project can provide children with an initial point of contact with the topics of “democracy” and “children’s rights.”

The project “united” raises awareness among children and adolescents about right-wing extremism, aiming to prevent and intervene against it while fostering prejudice-free interactions. During action days, topic-related knowledge is imparted. Through participatory theatre, themes such as “identity” and “dealing with populism” are explored. Interactive theatre performances illustrate different forms of xenophobic discrimination and highlight where racism begins. The target-group-oriented, theatre-based approach enables participants to collaboratively develop and practice strategies for handling challenging situations, thereby expanding their repertoire of actions. A supporting e-learning program reinforces the project’s impact during and after the action days. With this project, Creative Change addresses anti-democratic and discriminatory attitudes in schools, youth centers, and community organizations (e.g., sports clubs) in Hessen/Germany.

In a multi-day training program, adolescents aged 15 to 18 use participatory theatre and the method of peer case consultation to expand their repertoire of actions. They practice strategies that can be applied in their everyday lives. Workshops also provide content-related knowledge on relevant topics. The skills they acquire are then applied with younger students, and the knowledge they gain is passed on to them. Through peer education, topics such as “discrimination,” “extremism,” “media literacy,” and “democracy as a way of life” are addressed in an age-appropriate manner. CC facilitators develop the ability to recognize potential conflicts in their environment and proactively respond to them using the learned methods. They are encouraged to use their own potential to engage positively in their communities.

The Project "Vier Freunde im Rausch" (“Four Friends in a High”) is a theatre-based educational program aimed at raising awareness about responsible alcohol use. The project days foster self-efficacy among adolescents. Through interactive theatre, participants practice strategies for handling challenging situations. In this way, students acquire skills that help them deal with alcohol, enabling them to approach the topic more sensitively and consciously after completing the program.

impAct is an innovative prevention program by Creative Change e. V. that empowers adolescents to deal with hate speech, fake news, conspiracy theories, and extremist narratives. In two sequential modules (each consisting of four action days), students develop interactive strategies to address current societal challenges: Module I: Media Literacy – dealing with hate speech, cyberbullying, fake news, opinion formation, and manipulation Module II: Extremism – exploring right- and left-wing extremism, antisemitism, identity, and populism The core of the program combines interactive theatre, reflection, and peer case consultation. In addition, teachers and educational professionals are trained as multipliers to ensure the long-term integration of the program’s content into everyday school life.
