Education, Architecture, Policy
Online lecture series on post-war exchanges on educational policy and school building
Within the framework of the research project, we are organising a series of double and stand-alone lectures on the theme of international organisations shaping educational reforms and planning. Lecture topics include long-term notions of schooling and educational utopias, post-war educational reforms in GDR, Yugoslavia and Austria, historical and contemporary concepts of school interiors, and educational planning in the 1960s. The goal of the series is to initiate a transnational dialogue between historians of education and architectural historiographers, not unlike the exchanges between educators, educational planners and architects from the 1950s to 1970s.
Please join us for this dialogue on school architecture and its contexts.The presentations will be followed by a discussion. The lectures will be on Zoom; registration is requested. You will receive a Zoom link, a detailed program and reminders for the upcoming lectures.
