In June of this year I was approached by the New New Yorkers program about helping to design a workshop for a joint event with a local organization: Adhikkar. They were interested in producing an artist-led activity that reflected the local Nepali community’s multi-ethnic character and took into account the organizing efforts of Adhikaar. This is not an easy task.

Citizens VS. Work - the trial
On August 3, 2013 Citizens VS Work, a public trial was held in Cologne Germany. 6 people’s real work cases were presented and the public audience judged work innocent or guilty after deliberating on who and what was guilty - systems, structures and work environments or the individual. The trial aims at producing insight, reflection and understanding of the root causes of work challenges and allow for the development of ideas of amelioration.
