In its upcoming publication (planned publication date 10/2015), the Expert Council of the Council for Cultural Education will address the question of the fields and practices ("objects") of cultural education - i.e., the actual content of cultural education offerings and how this content is justified and selected.
The project of the LUH in cooperation with the Humboldt University of Berlin is located in this framework, which takes a field description from the expertise for adult education by analyzing programs, projects and publications of selected supra-regional associations, societies and institutions in non-formal cultural (adult) education. The focus is on the following aspects:

Which impulses are given by supra-regional institutions into practice?

What is actually implemented or offered?


The most important statements of the results of the study will become part of this year's memorandum of the Council for Cultural Education and will empirically support the analysis of the expert council.
