What is GSiK all about?
Living together in an open, culturally diverse society is increasingly challenged by simplistic and marginalising views. In the Global Systems and Intercultural Competence (GSiK) project at the University of Würzburg, you can take an academic look at cultural diversity. You will develop an understanding of different realities of life and scrutinise your perspective on the world. Forms of discrimination such as racism, anti-Semitism, ableism, sexism or queerophobia and their interdependencies are also examined. Last but not least, it is about the awareness of a global responsibility that obliges us to live sustainably and fairly. The interdisciplinary programme invites you to think outside the box of your field of study. The programme is open to students at the University of Würzburg
