Visions of the future and educational decisions in the context of transnational (educational) biographies

FuturMig Lecture Series with Dr. Matthias Wagner (University of Cologne) on February 10, 2026, 4.15 - 5.45 pm

Based on the initial results of the ongoing research project   TrEdBio (cf. Panagiotopoulou/Wagner/Gashi 2025; Wagner/Panagiotopoulou 2025), the lecture deals with the educational biographical practice of young people who, together with their families, have completed a '(trans)migration' from Greece to Germany and have decided to attend a Greek school abroad in Germany. It will be discussed how the biographers combine knowledge of inclusion/exclusion mechanisms within the German and Greek education systems with their visions of the future, which are geared towards transnational and social mobility, in this educational decision made in Germany but with a transnational orientation.

 

This lecture will be held in German.
