In study A Roman Lietz and Fergal Lenehan from the ReDICo team explored cosmopolitanism on the social media platform Twitter. The article was recently published in the Persona Studies Journal. 

We hope that you all had a good start into the new year! In the ReDICo team, we are already working at full speed on various tasks that we are now tackling in what is already the third project year and, thus, the second half of the project.

There’s snow on the ground here in Germany, the evenings are dark, and it’s time to look back at what we did in 2022. Maybe with your involvement? We would also like to look towards the brighter evenings that are coming and what’s planned for next year.

Winter is coming, and we are looking back on an inspiring conference summer. This year our first big conference “Lifewide Learning – Transformations and New Connections in Postdigital Societies” took place in the Dornburg Castles near Jena. For those who want to take a little trip back in time, we have created a short film in which we talk to participants.

We hereby invite all interested parties to submit abstracts for this conference! The deadline is 31 January 2023. We are looking forward to a lively discussion, among others Prof. emer. Gerard Delanty (University of Sussex) and Prof. Naika Foroutan (DeZIM Berlin) have confirmed their participation.
