The day began at the Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences with what has become our little routine: physical warm-up exercises, followed by the workshop. Before diving into the new topic, we briefly discussed our interpretation of resilience after the previous day.
We mentioned that resilience should be looked at from different angles such as gender, socioeconomic status, age, ethnicity, etc.
In the first workshop, we looked at the relationships between students and professors during the doctoral phase. We were given a taste of the GROW model as a tool for conflict resolution. In the second workshop, we split into two groups and tested our group building skills using puzzles. In the evening, we explored the city of Düsseldorf.
