    Auswirkungen gesellschaftlicher Krisen auf die digitale und soziale Teilhabe von Adressat:innen im Sozialraum: Ergebnisse einer Befragung von Fachkräften der Gemeinwesenarbeit in Hessen
    (IU Internationale Hochschule, 2024-07-01) Spieckermann, Holger; Nakao, Christiane; Preissing, Sonja; Sen, Katrin
    Social crises such as the corona crisis and the war in Ukraine do not leave social work untouched. On the one hand, these crises transform society and the social work; on the other hand, they reinforce social and economic inequalities. Since the Covid 19 pandemic, the issue of digitalisation has become more im-portant. Since the first lockdown in 2020, a shift into the digital space can be observed. So, processes of digitalisation poses new questions and challenges for social work - both for the professionals and the cli-ents. In our paper, we will examine and discuss the reflections of social workers on digitalisation in social work practice. For this purpose, we were conducting a survey with professionals of social work on digitalisation in the neighbourhood, e.g. the effects of the pandemic and the Ukraine crisis on social processes in the neighbourhood. Our research questions are: What impact does the pandemic have on the use of digital media in the neighbourhood? How do community work professionals assess the current digital and social changes for their work and their clients? Which competences in the use of digital tools have professionals and inhabitants developed? The pandemic has led to an increased need for digital media and methods in community work. Most professionals have expanded their digital skills during the pandemic in order to overcome the challenges of virtual communication and collaboration. Besides, the Ukraine crisis has in-creased social inequalities. Migrants, refugees and single parents in particular were hit harder by the con-sequences of the crisis; e.g. financial worries and discrimination also became more prevalent. In this paper the findings about the knowledge and reflections of the professionals regarding the chal-lenges and opportunities of digitalisation and migration in social work practice will be presented.

    Evaluation des Projektes „Stadtteilmütter in Köln-Mülheim“
    (IU Internationale Hochschule, 2025-04-16) Sen, Katrin; Spieckermann, Holger
    Dieser Bericht stellt die Evaluationsergebnisse des sozialräumlich orientierten Projekts „Stadtteilmüt-ter“ vor. Die Evaluation wurde im Jahr 2024 durchgeführt und die Ergebnisse basieren auf 11 Einzelin-terviews mit Klienten und einer Gruppendiskussion mit den Stadtteilmüttern. Es werden Perspektiven zur Förderung der gleichberechtigten Teilhabe von Familien mit Migrationsge-schichte aufgezeigt. Durch den Migrationshintergrund der Stadtteilmütter haben diese eine Vorbild-funktion für die Familien, die erleben, dass durch den Erwerb deutscher Sprachkenntnisse und die Ent-wicklung von Eigeninitiative ein selbstbestimmtes Leben möglich ist. „Stadtteilmütter“ schließen eine relevante Lücke im Regelsystem der Sozialpolitik. In Stadtteilen mit erhöhten Problem- und Bedarfsla-gen sind sie eine wichtige Ergänzung, um strukturelle Defizite wie Zugangsbarrieren, Personalmangel und fehlende Zielgruppenorientierung zu kompensieren.
