Learning objective	Aim of the course is to present the most important interrelations between society and spatial planning and spatial development. The main focus is on a better understanding of topics, pro-cedures and methods in social sciences. The course presents new approaches to urban quality, working with statistics and interviews, as well as the ethnographic exploration of neighbor-hoods. Finally, it highlights the variety and the possibilities of the collaboration with the popu-lation in planning processes - the participation process - and to make it useful for practice.
