Research areas:

"In the trust that people do not want to leave thinking and design to others, I work on participatory educational offerings and development concepts for schools and teacher training and thus focus on the learners' questions, problems, goals and visions Learning processes. In this way, I try to research and understand institutionalized emancipatory learning opportunities as a human right and basis for self-empowerment." (Johannes Reitinger)
