In the ‘Age-friendly Oldenburg’ project in cooperation with the city of Oldenburg, we were able to publish a final report on the entire project. Within the report, we describe the process of creating the questionnaire, the course of the survey in Oldenburg and detailed results on the perception of Oldenburg's age-friendliness. Further information and the report itself can be found on the project website here.

We are delighted to announce that the LEAH project “Living with Endometriosis - Testing an Arts-based Design for Health Services Research” has received 590,800 euros in funding from the Volkswagen Foundation and the state of Lower Saxony as part of the “zukunft.niedersachsen” program. In this interdisciplinary project at the University Medical Center Oldenburg (UMO), we are investigating how art can contribute to making the experiences of people living with endometriosis visible. The project is led by Dr. Milena von Kutzleben (Department of Health Services Research) and Prof. Dr. med. Eduard Malik (University Clinic for Gynaecology and Obstetrics) in collaboration with the Bremen ceramic artist Laura Solar. The project is expected to start in October 2025.
