Am Donnerstag, den 27.06. ab 12:15 Uhr halten die Politikwissenschaftlerinnen Prof’in Antonia Graf und Tomma Wagner sowie die Erziehungswissenschaftler Prof. Christian Fischer und Dr. David Rott im Rahmen der „ZIN-Brown Bag Lectures“ Kurzvorträge zum Oberthema „Diverse Arenas of Political and Social Participation and Learning“.

Worum geht es in den einzelnen Vorträgen? Das können Sie diesen Abstracts entnehmen:

• “Transformative Learning: Structural requirements and implementation options in schools” (Christian Fischer & David Rott): "Transformative learning requires diverse approaches and methods that open up fields of action for learners in which they can further develop their own thinking and actions. The aim of transformative learning is to change routines of thought and action. The lecture will present the scientific background with a view to a meta-architecture of transformative learning that can be used to implement corresponding programmes in schools. Phenomenon-based learning is presented as an example of how it is implemented at a grammar school in the Münsterland. Insights are given into the accompanying empirical research, which deals with issues such as critical thinking and the global competencies of students."
• “Including the excluded. Questions of representation in mobility related citizen participation” (Antonia Graf & Tomma Wagner): "Vulnerable groups face a twofold challenge with regard to democratic participation in sustainable mobility transitions: on the one hand, socio-demographic factors limit their access to (sustainable) mobility options (transport poverty); on the other hand, their voices are less heard in the debate on mobility transition. The presentation aims to identify requirements for citizen participation that meet the challenges of this ‘double exclusion’. We conceptualize ‘democratic representation’ with the help of democratic theory. Drawing on interviews with professional participation organizations, experiences from everyday participation practices are elicited, due to the requirements of groups vulnerable to exclusion. As a result, we expect a series of practice-relevant recommendations that should help to break the negative feedback loop of social exclusion and transport poverty by bringing together participation practice and democratic theory.“
