Outcome Summary

The Summer School 21 entitled “Zukunftsland Lungau” was a cooperation project of 5 universities and 21 fields of study. For one week, 25 students lived, studied, and worked on projects in Lungau, Salzburg.

The project groups dealt with the large thematic field of rural areas in different formats and with different methods. They looked closely, applied scientific methods, held discourses, reflected, and participated in lectures and workshops. In doing so, they focused on the two thematic headings “Innovation” and “Gender Arrangements”, which in turn were combined with several thematic clusters.
