Overview of the current research project: Social and ecological justice from a diversity-sensitive perspective - an empirical study in Chemnitz (April 2023 – March 2024, funded by the TUC)
More than ever, students are asked to actively engage in questions of social justice and to develop problem-solving strategies, social and personal skills in order to be able to sensitize, shape and further develop social spaces. In this regard, the Professorship will contribute to foster ecological and social equity through a research project in collaboration with the Kooperationsschule Chemnitz. A participatory, ethnographic field research will be conducted, where students, teachers, social pedagogues, and other educational actors will participate. The project focuses on raising awareness of sustainability issues and thus contributes in particular to goal 4 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals: to ensure inclusive, equal and high-quality education and to promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
