TALK: THE ART OF BEING A FATHER ACROSS GENERATIONS

Experience a conversation between author, journalist and TV host Erkan Özden and Adeel Ismail Naseem, leader of Baba – Foundation for Social Responsibility. The talk is moderated by author and cultural communicator Moussa Mchangama.

In connection with the performance “FATHERS & SONS”, this talk opens up a broader perspective on fatherhood, heritage and intergenerational relationships from a minority ethnic viewpoint. The panel reflects on how narratives, ideals and cultural experiences shape and transform ideas of fatherhood across generations – and how these influence both self-understanding and the relationship between fathers and their children.
