For the third time, the Office of Educational Innovation and University Didactics is organising a joint lecture series on the topic of sustainability together with Prof. Dr. René Fahr 's department in the winter semester 2024/25. The lecture series is entitled "UPB for Future" and is aimed at students of all disciplines and study phases, employees and the interested public. The ecological, social and economic dimensions of sustainability are addressed and discussed in weekly lectures.
Particular importance is attached to vocational training for the social and economic transformation towards a more sustainable society/economy. Of particular importance is the fact that general and vocational education must be interlinked. How is this ensured and implemented? What does this have to do with training quality and the shortage of skilled labour?
