ISIconsult is conducting a study for the Federal Foundation for Gender Equality titled “Structural Change as an Economic and Social Transformation Process from a Gender Theory Perspective.” The study examines the agriculture sector and the food system transition, which not only exhibits interesting dynamics—ranging from transformation challenges on the one hand to politically driven transformation pathways on the other—but also aligns with the complementary expertise of the participating female researchers.

Civic engagement is becoming increasingly important for sustainable urban development geared towards the common good. With their interest in liveable, everyday urban spaces, active citizens are driving forward sustainable, cooperative forms of building, living, consuming and working. In doing so, they contribute (at least implicitly) to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, environmentally friendly production processes and the protection of biodiversity. Although civic engagement is recognized as having great potential, it often remains disconnected from administrative processes: Both sides do not come together sufficiently in municipal governance, which reduces the impact of engagement.
