Pädagogische Hochschule Ludwigsburg (LUE)
The University of Education Ludwigsburg (LUE) is the leading partner in this project and located in the South of Germany. It is a leading institute for both initial teacher training at primary and secondary level, as well as a provider for further education and in-service training. The University was founded in 1962 and moved to Ludwigsburg in 1966. With its approximately 5,500 students and over 450 members of staff, it is the largest of the six Universities of Education in Baden-Wuerttemberg. The Universities concentrate on educational science issues both in research and teaching. LUE is a modern center of competency for educational sciences in four closely related disciplines: school education, extra curricular children’s and youth education, adult/further education and education in cultural and social areas.

Christoph Knoblauch is Professor for (Catholic) Religious Education.

He actively engages in the design and implementation of digital and project-based learning formats within higher education, linking theoretical research with practical applications.
Anselm Böhmer
Professor of General Education
Anselm Böhmer is professor for General Education. His research examines how education functions in late‐modern society, with a particular focus on subjectivation, socio‐structural and cultural‐theoretical perspectives, power relations in educational contexts, and organizations as agents of social inequality. In his research, teaching and seminars, Böhmer addresses topics such as structural discrimination, political aesthetics, organizational violence, and performative and intersectional identity practices.
Laura Döller is a PhD student at LUE. Her research focuses on religious and worldview-sensitive professionalisation in the education and training of future early childhood educators. She examines how diversity sensitivity and bias-consciosu education can contribute to a deeper professional understanding and foster inclusive practices in religiously diverse contexts. Through her work, she aims to strengthen (self-)reflective and diversity-conscious approaches within educators and teams.
