Belonging is Power (Workshop Series) | Pillar 1: Migration, Identity & Belonging
Belonging starts from within.
After the magic of our Open Day, we are officially kicking off our deep-dive Workshop Series. Project Tres brings years of experience from India and Kenya—where we learned that true independence isn’t just about income; it’s about reclaiming our narrative, our power, and our place in a new system.
In Berlin, we are applying this holistic model to the realities of migrant women. We know that rebuilding a life here involves more than just a job search—it’s an emotional, cultural, and systemic transition. Our series is built on Four Pillars, and this Saturday, we begin with the foundation: Migration, Identity & Belonging
Pillar 1: Migration, Identity & Belonging
In this 3-hour workshop, we create a brave space to unpack our migration stories and acknowledge the diverse realities we carry. Whether you arrived in Berlin last month or have been navigating this city for over a decade, your experience belongs here.
The plan for our time together:
Arrive & Ground: We will begin with gentle bodywork and meditation practices to land in the space and connect with our physical selves before we dive into the collective work.
Identity Shifts: Who are you now, in this new context?
Confronting Challenges: Navigating the realities of discrimination and systemic barriers.
Internal Strength: Building the psycho-social tools needed for self-determination in Germany.
This is the first step in a journey that will later cover Family & Community, Society & Systems, and Myself in Action.
