What if our space for learning could turn into a living room, a café – or an island?

In the first episode of the new season, we pass by Vienna to begin our exploration of learning, identity and belonging.

We meet with Margit Lindner from the magdas hotel, a social enterprise that supports learners with a refugee background. Margit takes us on a tour of the hotel and tells us what it means to run a business that’s focused on people, and not on profit.

We also talk to Alisa Cela-Goldgruber from Verein Piramidops, a community centre for migrant women. She shows us around the neighbourhood, and shares how adult learning can create new spaces for exchange between communities, both physical and metaphorical.
