A Diversity of Perspectives for Language Education

As a team at the Mercator Institute, we work in an interdisciplinary and project-based manner. We bring together expertise from academia, professional practice, communication, and administration to collectively achieve the Institute’s goals. Our team represents a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, from German studies, linguistics, and language studies to the teaching of German as a second and foreign language, educational sciences, social sciences, and psychology, as well as intercultural education, ethnology, and the teaching of natural sciences. This opens up a diversity of perspectives that has a beneficial impact on our work to strengthen equal opportunity in the context of multilingualism and language education. In addition, our individual staff members have different academic and functional areas of focus, which are described in more detail on their respective profile pages. Please feel free to contact us.
