Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) are key pillars in formal and informal education. However, educational institutions around the globe are too often inequitable and selective, which has direct repercussions for their ability to transform society. There is a need for research on the valorization of all facets of diversity within education, and for critical questioning of the (re)production of educational and social inequalities in different political, historical, and socioeconomic contexts. The conference thus aims to foster international debate on DEIB+, critically questioning Global South-Global North, Eastern and Western ideologies, and invites educational researchers to propose and discuss related theoretical, methodological, and empirical work.

On our tour through Chemnitz city center, we will visit various stumbling stones (Stolpersteine). These small memorial stones are spread all over Germany and many other countries with the aim to remember the people killed during Holocaust. We will commemorate the lives of Jewish families who were deported as well as people who resisted National Socialism and were also persecuted and murdered for their activism. Let’s discuss what we can learn from the past and establish a connection to our present day so that we never forget the lessons of the Holocaust.
