(un)faires Pflegesystem? 👵🏽

Bernhard Weicht und
@LisaWaldenburger erklären in ihrem Kommentar im Standard, warum das Pflegesystem uns alle betrifft, welche strukturellen Schwächen es gibt und an welchen Stellen ein Umdenken dringend notwendig ist.

Gute Pflege kann man nicht dem Markt überlassen

Pflegende Frauen oder migrantische Betreuerinnen und Betreuer: Das läuft nicht immer gut ab und schon gar nicht fair. Was die Diskussion um den Vorarlberger Betreuungspool über unser Pflegesystem verrät

The #letscare summer newsletter is here!

In the current issue, we take a closer look at the sometimes quite differently understood terms used in long-term care – what do we mean when we talk about needs, quality of care, quality of care work, sustainability and inequality?

🎉 The ESPAnet Conference starts today — and this year it's hosted by @uniinnsbruck!
Excited to dive into rich discussions on social policy, connect with colleagues, and explore new research from austria and beyond. We will be presenting two papers from #LeTsCare— one on AI and the problem of ageing, and another on live-in carers in Austria.

Just in time for Easter and almost a year after the official start of the project, the first newsletter of the network has been published. It explains the basic idea of the project and our research interests. Oh and where you can find us at events this summer ;) #letscare @opensciencesopo @SoziologieUIBK @uniinnsbruck @EUCommission

The research group Work.Care.Sociology (@SoziologieUIBK ) hosted a conference today on the topic of ‘Self-employed work in care and support’ and we were invited to report on our current research project ‘LetsCare’. #letsCare

Also last month we went @WZB_Berlin for the conference on: Inklusion & Exklusion älterer Menschen in der Ära künstlicher Intelligenz @dgsoziologie to talk about "the 'problem' of ageing-addressing or shaping problme constructions?" #letsCare

In April I started working with these great researchers in the #euhorizon project "Learning from long-term care practices for the European care strategy" (LetsCare). Earlier this month we met at the Roskilde University! Look how sunny it was ;)
