Svenja Stahlhut has worked for many years on project-related activities in the context of co-design and different participation formats in urban areas, which ultimately led her to study geography in Hanover and to complete her Bachelor's degree with a focus on spatial research and spatial planning at the University of Vienna. She is currently completing a Master's degree in Spatial Research and Planning at the Institute of Geography and Regional Research. Svenja's interests lie primarily in the areas of housing or the sharing of things, knowledge or spaces - everything that makes a space fairer for everyone who lives there. She is working as a student assistant in the Urban Studies working group since the beginning of 2025.
