The travelling exhibition "ToleranceSpaces" is touring Germany with colourful containers and invites people to experience and discuss how tolerance can work in social coexistence and where it has its limits. An indoor version of the exhibition will be making a stop at Paderborn University Library from 21 April to 10 May. On Tuesday, 21 April, it will be opened by Vice-President for International Relations at Paderborn University and President of the COLOURS Alliance, Professor Heike Trautmann, at 2.30 pm. Afterwards, all interested parties are invited to a bilingual tour of the exhibition followed by a discussion. The travelling exhibition runs until 10 May and can be visited during the regular opening hours of the university library. The aim of the exhibition is to open up new perspectives on the topic of tolerance to the public, as well as on the lives of other people.

Virtual exhibition

In addition to the physical exhibition on site, the Centre for Information and Media Technology Services (ZIM) and GamesLab at Paderborn University have also created a virtual version. Users can explore "ToleranzR?umeVR" either in the browser on their computer or using VR glasses. Further information and access to the application can be found on the project page.

Day of action against racism

The travelling exhibition will take place as part of the day of action against racism at Paderborn University. Beforehand, on Tuesday 21 April from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the foyer of the university, various hands-on formats and information offers will be presented in the form of activity stands, which will deal with topics such as racism and racism-critical attitudes.
