The aim of the ‘PflewaK’ research project is to find out what forms of social support are provided by chosen family networks and what role this support plays in coping with care events. In addition, the project will investigate the experiences of LGBTI* seniors and their relatives and friends with elderly care. The aim is to provide impetus for the diversity-sensitive further development of the care and elderly care system.

The ‘PflewaK’ project, led by Prof. Dr. Ralf Lottmann, will run until 2026.


More information about the research project can be found on the website of Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences.
