Martina Brandt has had an eventful week!

The highlights in fast-forward:

  1. Linköping, Sweden (ASC-ISAR Seminar): The seminar kicked off on Wednesday (21.01.) with a presentation on inequalities in social support and integration in old age. Based on 20 years of research with SHARE data, Martina Brandt showed that "care" is a central dimension of social inequality in Europe.
  2. Frankfurt (SHARE Management Board): The event continued on Thursday directly at Frankfurt Airport with an internal workshop on the future of the SHARE study. Together, the strategic course for the coming years was set.
  3. Cologne (AK Geragogik): To round off the week, the Geragogics working group was on the agenda on Friday to discuss current developments in educational work with older people: An intensive exchange with colleagues! We are already looking forward to the next steps.
