The Comparative Research Network (CRN – www.crnonline.de) was founded in 2007 and has since been active in the areas of non-formal adult education, youth and vocational education and training. The activities of the CRN are divided into three vertical areas: research, education and publication. The research department aims to bring the social sciences to the public. Research areas include: European Borders, Civic Participation, Urban Issues, Peacebuilding and Intercultural Dialogue, Diversity and Citizen Science. We work on local projects in Berlin with migrants on co-creating concepts of social inclusion. CRN specialises in civic education and participation, cultural heritage, digital and media skills, storytelling, intercultural skills, green education, game-based learning and creative social entrepreneurship, among others.
