Research project
This collaborative project investigates regional disparities across a total of four different educational landscapes. The aim is to identify and address local strategies for tackling spatially-determined educational disadvantage, and to develop recommendations for action in regional practice.
Both socio-spatial structural conditions and endogenous potential influence the construction of living environments and, consequently, the framework within which individuals shape their educational pathways. This process will be examined, by way of example, at the transition from school to vocational training. Here, structures relating to public services and civic engagement, driven by various (particular) interests, clearly interact with one another, with consequences for individual educational opportunities. Using the research topics of career guidance and youth (vocational) support, two sub-projects (A and B) will examine the dynamics of regional educational landscapes in structurally disadvantaged areas in terms of their interaction with regional (in)formal networks and the relationships inherent within them. The central hypothesis is that the quality and reach of regional networks within educational landscapes have a decisive influence on the removal of educational barriers.
The project is being carried out in cooperation with the Zukunftszentrum Holzminden-Hƶxter at HAWK Holzminden. The focus of Mittweida University of Applied Sciencesā sub-project is on youth support.
