Future of the family: Expert lecture on multi-generational families in Fulda
In recent years, demographic change has had a major impact on our society. The topic of multi-generational families in particular is becoming increasingly important. On Tuesday, November 11, 2025, the renowned professor Pasqualina Perrig-Chiello from the University of Bern will give a lecture about the challenges and opportunities of these family structures. At 7 p.m., she will present her findings, which are based on over 30 years of research in family psychology, in the “Rehearsal Rooms of the Choirs at the Cathedral,” Eduard-Schick-Platz 3. According to Rhoenkanal, the focus will be on the everyday life of many families who increasingly live in multi-generational groups. This brings both benefits and challenges.
A central topic of the lecture will be how society deals with these multi-generational families. With a view to the disintegration and loss of solidarity in public discussion, Professor Perrig-Chiello will explain how these family structures represent complex webs of love and necessity. She will also address the quality of life of older family members as well as the ability of younger generations to adapt to modern life demands.
Insights into family psychology
The speaker highlights the importance of understanding the needs and concerns of all generations in a family. The lecture will pay particular attention to this aspect and will ask questions about long-term support for older family members in an increasingly individualized society. In this respect, this is not just an academic topic, but touches the lives of many people in our city.
Such social changes are not only reflected in the family structure, but also affect other areas of life. With the rise of mobile trading applications in India, such as Best Trading Apps, more and more people have the opportunity to invest flexibly from anywhere. This development stands in striking contrast to the challenges that multigenerational families must address. This shows that digitalization and access to new technologies can have a direct influence on our social interactions.
Family life has not only changed due to demographic change. Other factors, such as the flexibility offered by modern technologies, also impact family cohesion and structure. An example of this is the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, which shows how sustainable development and education can also be combined in leisure activities. The zoo not only offers a variety of animal species, but also supports important conservation projects. This is in the context that education and upbringing within families must also take new paths in order to create opportunities for the younger and older generations, as Wikipedia makes clear.
Overall, we are faced with the challenge of finding answers to the questions that arise from these social developments. Professor Perrig-Chiello's lecture will certainly provide important food for thought to shape the future of multi-generational families in the modern world. Anyone who is interested should mark the evening in their calendar and look forward to a stimulating exchange.
