‘Society – that’s (for) you!’ is a discussion program for the police about working in a multicultural society. This program has been designed around eight short film clips that show police work dilemmas concerning equal treatment and dealing with diversity. There is for example, a film clip on discrimination at neighbour disputes, or on room for diversity within the police organization, or on help for undocumented immigrants.
‘Society – that’s (for) you’ can be widely used within the Dutch police organisation.
The film clips can be used for conversations between students and between colleagues as well. A teacher at the police academy, for example, could show a film clip in class to draw attention to a particular topic. Or a team leader may wish to use a film clip to start a discussion with his or her team about a particular topic. Each film clip will prompt a group discussion about how the police should or could act in the given situation.
The basic idea is that each situation is different and requires an inquisitive approach.
