WHAT?
New places of learning, such as "third places", CoWorking Spaces, Makerspaces, FabLabs or repair cafes are an expression of a contemporary "educational freedom".

The main objective of this project is therefore to analyze these modern learning space concepts in order to derive possible development potentials for adult education - especially for Bildungshäuser in German-speaking countries. The results of the project will be published in a brochure and shall be an impulse for the sustainable further development of Bildungshäuser.

WHY?
Bildungshäuser are facing the challenge of reflecting on their identity and raison d'être as educational institutions. They describe themselves as places of encounter and exchange and are challenged to renew their structures and concepts so that they remain so in the future. The development of needs-oriented learning space concepts is leading the way here.
