Inaugural Lecture by Prof. Dr. Franziska Geib

On the occasion of her appointment as Professor of Inclusive Work with People with Disabilities and Diversity at the Department of Social and Educational Sciences, Prof. Dr. Franziska Geib will give her inaugural lecture.

What understanding of inclusion does social work need?

The term "inclusion" is not a dusty, everyday technical term – on the contrary: whether it has positive or negative connotations, it is on everyone's lips (or hands) and is generally used when it comes to whether people with disabilities are included and allowed to participate.

In the lecture, the complexity of this fashionable term will be shown and then a concrete and multifaceted picture of a critical-reflective understanding of inclusion will be drawn along the definition of the subject and function of social work, which invites constructive inclusion development. Using a current research project and a real-life laboratory as a seminar format for research-based learning, Franziska Geib will also illustrate this understanding and provide an insight into her main areas of work.

The event will be offered in hybrid form. The Zoom link will be made available before the start of the event.

Target audience: University members Public
