Bibliodrama Education


BIBLIODRAMA FACILITATOR ADVANCED COURSE
April 2023 to summer 2025
>>> a reflection by Els Claessen from Belgium

European Bibliodrama Basic Training - experience reportThe 2nd European Bibliodrama Basic Course has been completed with 18 participants from 9 countries. The 12-day course led by Lotta Geisler and Lars-Gunnar Skogar in Bromma/Sweden qualifies participants to lead bibliodrama in their own field of practice and has a special focus on interdenominational and transcultural group processes. The graduates have the opportunity to further develop their skills in an Advance course. For this purpose, they design workshops in their own field of practice.
Experience has shown that such courses generate interest in the development of interreligious encounters and learning processes.
The course took place in the framework of the European Bibliodrama Network and is supported by the ERASMUS+ program of the European Commission. GfB was awarded the project sign Partner for Europe by the German National Agency Education for Europe for its commitment. The letter states, "The shield documents your commitment to Europe. ... And can be perceived as a commitment to Europe."

German-Polish, Ecumenical and Interreligious Bibliodrama Course Krzyżowa/Kreisau 2022-2023
 The presentation of the bibliodrama training Krzyżowa 2023-2024 will consist of two parts: in the first part I will give a general description of the training: characteristics of the participants, trainers, choice of course language, objectives and training plan, and the second part will contain the participants' feedback.
 
I/ GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE TRAINING
 
1/ TRAINERS, PARTICIPANTS, TIMEFRAME, COURSE CREATORS
The bibliodrama course in Krzyżowa, which took place between August 2022 and November 2023, had an intercultural, interconfessional and interreligious character.
The cultural and historical context of the course was the very difficult past of German-Polish relations related especially to the Second World War.
It consisted of six modules: 08.2022; 10.2022; 03.2023; 06.2023; 09.2023; 11.2023.
In the second half of the course, supervision meetings on projects were scheduled as one of the requirements for the end of the course.
The course was designed by three leaders: Ewa Alfred (DE), Albert Heinz (DE) and Beata Chrudzimska (PL). Wolfgang Wesenberg (DE) was involved in the preparatory work from the beginning. After Albert Heinz resigned from the course, Wolfgang Wesenberg joined the team of leadership trainers.
The four modules lasted from Sunday evening until lunch on Friday. The June module ran from Friday evening until lunch on Sunday and the final module was a three-day convention dedicated to the final colloquium.
The group consisted of six people from Poland, two people from Germany and one person from Hungary.
The group was mixed in terms of religion, language and so-called status in the Catholic Church. There were three nuns in the group.
In the Polish group there were five Catholics and one Baptist. The German woman was Catholic and the German belonged to the Swedish (Lutheran) Church and lives in Malmö. One Polish woman has lived abroad for more than twenty years (currently in Switzerland). The participant from Hungary spoke both German and Polish to an excellent degree and had experience of living in both countries: Poland and Germany.

The age of the participants ranged from 27 to 57 years.
The description of the group participants shows that the group was very diverse.
Individuals represented a formed religious worldview and a mature identity in its national, spiritual and personality aspects.
A special feature of the group was the maturity of its participants, combined with a sense of their own distinctiveness, otherness and awareness of their emotional and spiritual needs in a multicultural and multireligious context. This was combined with marking their individual boundaries and demands on the trainers running the course.
