Research Topics
The ForFamily research association conducts a wide range of empirical studies on the changes in family structures, with a regional focus on Bavaria. The collaborative research is interdisciplinary in nature. This is reflected in the association’s logo:
The individual sub-projects are represented by the separate colored elements. When this structure is expanded, the elements connect in various ways, forming three-dimensional spaces. These structures symbolize the collaborative research topics.
