Children's & YAJanuary 2020The World Around Us
by Galyna Guzovska-Korytska (Author), Lyudmyla Kharlamova (Illustrator)
We must see the world from the standpoint of everything that surrounds us, of what we encounter every day, for us to truly understand the issues in our lives, the situations we find ourselves in, and how to address them properly. In our individualistic world, however, we do not always manage to think about what is truly important. The World Around Us motivates young readers to deeply examine their values, to recognise the negative actions of the characters in her stories, and to look for a positive approach to the world that surrounds them. The World Around Us consists of 16 stories, each of which is associated with a specific thematic word such as friendship, the future, wisdom… it is up to the young readers to think the stories through their keywords, and by doing so, they will develop their feelings of empathy, decency, kindness, humanity, and generosity. From 5 to 8 years readers, 3312 words Rightsholders: Galyna Guzovska; guzovskakorickagalina@gmail.com

Prekäre Wissenschaft in Deutschland
by Amrei Bahr, Kristin Eichhorn, Sebastian Kubon
Seit 2007 prekarisiert das Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz Arbeitsbedingungen und Berufsaussichten des akademischen Mittelbaus: Das Gros der Wissenschaftler:innen hangelt sich von einem befristeten Job zum nächsten, und wer nach zwölf Jahren keine feste Stelle hat, fällt endgültig aus dem System heraus. Als 2021 ein Video des Forschungsministeriums in den Fokus gerät, in dem am Beispiel der fiktiven Biologin »Hanna« die vermeintlichen Vorzüge des Gesetzes gepriesen werden, lancieren Amrei Bahr, Kristin Eichhorn und Sebastian Kubon den Hashtag #IchBinHanna. Binnen weniger Stunden machen zahllose Wissenschaftler:innen ihrem Ärger Luft. Sie schildern die Auswirkungen der Prekarität auf ihr Leben, berichten von Überlastung und Depressionen. Die Medien greifen das Thema auf, und »Hanna« schafft es wenig später sogar in den Bundestag. In ihrer Streitschrift legen die Initiator:innen dar, welche Folgen das »WissZeitVG« für Forschende und Studierende, aber auch für den Wissenschaftsstandort Deutschland und unsere Gesellschaft insgesamt hat. Sie resümieren die Erfahrungsberichte unter #IchBinHanna und präsentieren ihre Forderungen für bessere Arbeitsbedingungen in Forschung und Lehre.
