PERIPHERIE relies on interdisciplinary
and practice-oriented research. We offer the planning, design, and
implementation of practice-related projects, the development of
implementation designs, as well as assistance with accompanying
measures. Our services range from evaluations, the writing of data
handbooks and accompanying research to the analysis of needs, of
acceptance and effectiveness of measures. Accompanying and counselling
measures include:
- design, organisation, and implementation of symposia, conferences,
seminars, and workshops
- further education, counselling and coaching
- design of measures based on research results
The wide array of socio-politically relevant and up-to-date topics
covered by PERIPHERIE stems from the potential and expertise of
our interdisciplinary research team. Our researchers cover the following
topics among others:
Gender mainstreaming
Gender mainstreaming is a strategy used in the implementation of
equal opportunities for women and men at all societal and institutional
levels. PERIPHERIE transposes the general
criteria of the GM concept for organisations and corporations into
concrete problems and implementation designs, and also accompanies
the implementation of measures.

Job market and social policy
In most industrialised countries, the job market and social policy
are based on the male breadwinner-model. Against this backdrop,
PERIPHERIE investigates and analyses gender-specific
contexts
More
Education
PERIPHERIE does educational research and
implements the results in both adult and further education programmes.
PERIPHERIE offers knowledge transfer by communicating major findings
of gender studies.

Migration/integration
In European societies, the question of how to integrate people with
a migration background into the host society and which rights to
grant them, has become increasingly important. Research and education
in the field of migration have turned out to be highly relevant,
if not a major necessity.

Health
The distribution and rise of health and ill-health are closely associated
to societal and social conditions. Gender-specific findings enable
a positive development of the health system.
