Why am I studying spatial planning?
What changes do we want to make through spatial planning?
In which ways is spatial planning reflected in the everyday lives of children and young people?
What should children and young people know about spatial planning? Which topics are of interest to them?
Where can good spatial planning be observed?
How has spatial planning contributed to the awareness of responsible use of our living space?
These are the questions we want to address during the seminar. As spatial planning ambassadors, students will go back to their former school (or a school of their choice) to introduce spatial planning as a societal task, discipline and study program to children and young people.

This involves reflecting on their own first encounters with spatial planning and their choice of study program together with representatives from schools, as well as developing their own concepts for conveying spatial planning in schools and implementing those concepts in schools. The school type and grade as well as the formats can be chosen freely. The contents and materials such as folders, quizzes, short videos, models, games,... should be prepared for specific target groups and ages. The aim is to inspire interest in spatial planning among students (and teachers) and to raise awareness of current topics and problems in spatial planning.
The course is eligible for credit as a supplementary course in elective modules 3 and 5.
