Final Event: “Health! Participation in the Care Sector”
On November 4th, 2025, the FAU project “Gesundheit! Inclusion in the Care and Nursing Sector” will present its findings at the Mercator Foundation’s ProjektZentrum Berlin. The practice-oriented research project, funded by the Mercator Foundation at the FAU Center for Human Rights (FAU CHREN) under the direction of Prof. Dr. Petra Bendel, explores how sustainable employment and retention of nurses with a migration background can succeed. An interdisciplinary team from political science, public health, and human geography examined not only workplace conditions but also inclusion in everyday life beyond the work place, as well as regional differences between urban and rural areas.
The closing event will present the project’s key findings, derived policy recommendations, and final publications, and discuss them with representatives from academia, practice, politics, and civil society. The aim is to explore recommendations for sustainable workforce development and meaningful inclusion. Please note that the event will be held in German.
Registration for in-person attendance is possible until October 24th, 2025 by email to Yasemin Bekyol (yasemin.bekyol@fau.de).
