Aims, contents and method of the course

Social Area Analysis on the Example of Urban Climate and Public Space of a Neighbourhood in Margareten, Vienna
Are social area analyses a tool to understand the city as a living space of various people in times of climate change? The aim is the introduction to social area analysis, connected fieldwork and analysis methods.Social area analyses follow either a city approach or a city quarter approach.
On the example of a part of Margareten, a dense inner city neighbourhood, students get introduced to the city quarter approach. Climate change is clearly perceptible in urban space. What is the contribution of social area analyses with the interdisciplinary approach, a broad mix of methods and triangulative analyses in this context?
This seminar offers an overview of the subject, introduces various methods and discusses the interrelations of social area analysis, participation and planning processes. In addition, guest speakers will share their experiences of current practice.
The methods of the course include an introduction lecture, inputs of guest speakers, an excursion, the application of one selected method, presentations and discussions.
