Grant awarded by the Utrechts Stimuleringsfonds Onderwijs Faculty of Social Sciences. Goal: to develop and continue developing a ‘living code of conduct’ or ‘code to dialogue’ for teachers and students to address sensitive issues in our teaching programs at the faculty of social sciences, as well as offering a long term commitment to a dialogical space in which this code of conduct is tested and accustomed.
Subgoals: •To address conflicts, differences of opinion, ideology and perspective within our teaching programs; •To make such conflicts, differences of opinion, ideology, perspectives educational; •To establish a practice and create a space in which students and teachers learn to address sensitive issues; •To lay down such experiences in a program based ‘code to dialogue’ as a possible supplement of the current (general) UU code of conduct. Since the ‘code to dialogue’ is build ‘bottom up’, in the project phase the codes we develop will be program-based codes, and might thus differ per teaching program. •To create a generic code to dialogue to offer for more general implementation at faculty or UU level (to possibly implement in the UU code of conduct).
