[FoME] Website of the EC4SC

Dear Colleagues and dear interested parties,

First of all I wish you a happy new year 2020!

WITH THE START OF THE NEW YEAR I AM HAPPY TO FINALLY ANNOUNCE THAT WE  
ARE NOW ONLINE WITH OUR WEBSITE OF THE RESEARCH CENTER  
“ENTWICKLUNGSKOMMUNIKATION – COMMUNICATION FOR SOCIAL CHANGE” (EC4SC).

https://www.sozphil.uni-leipzig.de/en/entwicklungskommunikation/

As the whole web presence of the University of Leipzig was changed  
last year, the process took much longer than expected.
NOW THAT WE ARE ONLINE, YOU CAN FIND FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE  
CENTRE AND THE PROJECTS.

The central question of the research centre EC4SC is how communication  
can be used to promote a societal transformation towards a sustainable  
society.
We developed three focus areas: In order to make the configuration  
accessible to all, one focus is on making the existing structures of  
these negotiation processes
in the media and the institutions more participative and on opening  
these up, especially for marginalised groups.
In the focus empowerment and ownership, we are especially concerned  
with motivating people to express their issues by increasing the  
responsibility of the citizen and to enable them to participate.
Of course, conflicts are not inevitable in negotiation processes. This  
is why we have adopted mediation as the third focus of the centre.
The aim is to mediate between the various concerns and perspectives in  
order to ensure successful communication.
In all three areas the question will be which structures promote and  
which hinder participation, empowerment and mediation.

In order to enforce the cooperation between science and praxisfield,  
the centre is divided into research, education and transfer.
Transfer is especially important as our aim is thus to strengthen the  
cooperation between science and (civil) society. 

Warm greetings from Leipzig,
Sincerely,
Kefa Hamidi
