Following the success of the online lecture series in the winter semester 2024/2025 with over 1,300 participants, the series will now be continued in the summer semester 2025. 

It will kick off with a lecture by Peter Wohleben on animals in the forest and hunting. As a forester, author and founder of the Forest Academy, Wohlleben has a wealth of knowledge about the forest ecosystem and is committed to protecting it.

In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on environmental awareness and interest in climate protection at universities. Even though this has resulted in very successful formats to date, the direct relationship between humans and animals has not yet been sufficiently addressed in university contexts. The lecture series of the Chair of Didactics and Educational Research in Healthcare and the Junior Professorship of Digital Health therefore refers to the synthesis “human-animal relationship” and offers a platform for a comprehensive discussion and examination of the diverse aspects of animal welfare, environmental awareness and ethics. 

You can register online. Participation is free of charge.
