Goal of the Conference

Comparative analysis of similarities and differences of the “Gen Z in Europe” based, between others, on the following indicators:

  • attitude towards education,
  • working life
  • work-life balance;
  • levels of interaction and communication (digital / analog)

The findings should , between others, be matched with:

  • geographical
  • social
  • cultural
  • educational

environment and the fit to value systems for the European region. A group of researchers from important countries met to discuss these issues and plan form a powerful, long-lasting network.

Anne Rennig is Managing Director of the Collegium Europaeum (CEUS) at Saarland University. The institution’s research focus on Europe led her to the question whether there is an ‚European Generation Z‘. Having originally a scientific background in Comparative Literature, the cooperation with Prof. Scholz was her first contact to the field of generational research. She found it quite interesting!
