In Munich there are currently two self-representation groups that meet monthly- open to German and English-speaking persons.
What we offer:
Meet once a month with other people with a migration history and disability or chronic illness or with their relatives. Together we talk about topics that concern you: your everyday life, your rights, the German help system. We also take part in workshops and joint excursions.

Additional groups can be formed if necessary.
In our workshops you will learn practical methods to better deal with stress and discrimination. You will learn how you can strengthen and support yourself.
Participation in the workshops is also possible regardless of the group!
