Creative writing

Project description

Since autumn 2018, Tatort Zukunft has developed and conducted two creative writing courses at the JVA for women Berlin with lecturers from the JFK Institute at the Free University of Berlin. The participants were trained to express their feelings and thoughts freely and directly. The workshops were designed to encourage independent creative writing, to enable a mutual and creative exchange and of course to be fun. Our goal was to develop a personal approach to written language together with the participants, which can ultimately help them to write CVs, letters and cover letters with confidence in the future.
