Presentation Topic

Under the title “What is your limiting factor: personnel, money, space, or all three?” Jens Rauber highlights the central challenges of municipal school construction. Using examples from Cologne, he demonstrates how skilled labor shortages, limited budgets, and lack of space influence the planning and implementation of school construction projects, and what strategies can help address these challenges. He also discusses the requirements for sustainability, construction times, and contemporary pedagogical concepts, and presents solutions for a future-oriented school construction practice.
