Between individual adaptation and political activism: Educating career counselors to support social inclusion

The aim of the workshop is to enrich the knowledge of teaching and supporting students’ learning concerning social inclusion. We elaborate an understanding of inclusion/exclusion in three perspectives: social, structural and individual, based on Axel Honneth’s theory of patterns of intersubjective recognition. Given the social norms and the structural constraints in the society, we ask: “What is the career counselors’ degrees of freedom in the meeting with clients in a transition from education to work, from work to work, from work to education or from work to retirement?” The workshop’s background is the teaching of social inclusion in a master’s degree in career guidance in Norway.
