  • DEMOK: ACT AND SPEAK: Democracy Under Pressure

    It is high time to strengthen democratic action. Artists, in particular, are called upon to actively oppose the erosion of democratic structures through teaching, practice, and community-building. As the Academy of Fine Arts, it is clearly our duty to commit ourselves to preserving and safeguarding a democratic society. Starting in October 2026, the long-term DEMOK program will actively invite participants to help shape it and get involved.

  • Narrative Techniques for Clear, Memorable Research Presentations

    From Planning and Messaging to Structure and Slides

    This workshop helps doctoral and PhD candidates design research presentations that are clear, engaging, and easy to follow. Instead of focusing on delivery techniques, the course builds strong foundations: defining a clear message, structuring content, and creating slides that support understanding.
