Abortion Storytelling Circles - Facilitator Training
The monthly Abortion Storytelling Circles at Schokofabrik are a closed, private circle space for people with lived experience of abortion in Berlin. This particular circle is only for people who have physiologically experienced pregnancy and abortion, therefore it is important to us that the facilitators also are lived-experience experts. This is a queer-affirming space where gender-euphoric language will be honored throughout. As this is a self-run initiative, we would appreciate more information from interested participants to keep this training a safe and protected space. Our primary language will be English with time and space for translation. The training will consist of a short introduction round and a guided somatic impulse followed by various facilitation techniques with ample time to role-play and share feedback. We will close with another somatic practice. Donations will be gratefully accepted. Collaboration is always welcome. Where: Schokofabrik Frauenzentrum e.V. When: Saturday, 12 April, 11-15h. Accessibility: the space is only accessible by stairs, and is not wheelchair accessible, participation in the training and somatic practices can be done in stillness and in motion; sitting down, moving around, taking breaks, etc., at this time it will not be offered virtually. The room will be ventilated and unless otherwise asked for masking will be voluntary. If you have specific accessibility needs please let us know below or reach out directly to abortiongroupberlin@outlook.com.
