At the end of June, the two scientists from the University of Würzburg, Sabine Wolz and Tanja Wilkeneit visited us to look at a typical Tamam project day and to get an overview of what we are doing here.
The background: At the University of Würzburg, a research center was set up last November, in which a research project is carried out with the two project managers – a professor of art education and a professor of special education. “Educational conditions and effects of aesthetic education in people in socially difficult constellations (” waebi “) – this is the title of this research project, which aims to unite two target groups: young people with social disadvantages and young people with a refugee background.
“Against this background, we are looking for ten projects that deal with it,” explains Sabine Wolz. “We researched the projects on the Internet, and the KunstBauStelle was immediately noticeable to us.” In the first step, the two research associates have looked at how we work together with the young people and whether certain criteria are fulfilled – for example, that the young people can contribute their own ideas. In a second step, which will be held in a separate session, interviews will be held with the young people and the speakers.
The scientific research project is carried out nationwide. “The divisions are open to us – from music rhythm, dance, movement, improvisation, art to circus,” reports Tanja Wilkeneit. “At the same time, we are looking forward to projects that take up different fields, such as the KunstBauStelle, which combines theater, video talk and interview management.”
Tanja Wilkeneit and Sabine Scholz were satisfied with us and quite impressed with our work. They felt that the atmosphere in the team was very positive, and they were amazed at how committed the young people – whether the students of the IKG or the young refugees – are doing.
The research report will be published in writing – whether it is in book form or other writing – has not yet been established – in any case, it will also be available online. The research project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
