9. Initial motivation for the establishment of your RCE :
There is much literature on and public awareness of the social problems experienced in urban areas of social deprivation. However, the social issues challenging affluent rural areas are often overlooked, in both literature and in the public mind. There is insufficient research on the impact of economic, social and cultural determinants on the life courses of young people. Some rural social problems are indeed the same as those of poorer urban areas, if less extreme or less prevalent; others are qualitatively different, requiring new social work, youth work and educative solutions.
As a rural region, the Oldenburger Münsterland has recently enjoyed relatively significant levels of economic growth. The RCE Oldenburger Münsterland would thus aim to address this paucity of research on the issues of youth in affluent rural regions by contributing appropriate studies.

11. Shift of focus :
During 2011 the RCE OM has broaden its perspective through the co-operation with additional partners. Another focus of the RCE OM is an economic and an ecological perspective.
While working with the OLB and debt advice service in our region, we provide educational services for adolescents and young adults on the topic "financial and life planning" while co-working with their vocational schools. The departments of "Social Work" and "infrastructure planning and agrar-economics" of the University of Vechta have signed a co-operation contract. The central topics of this co-operation are nutrition, consumption and educational services for children and adolescents on the topic "Life on a farm today".
Therefore, the RCE OM also has children as a new addressed group in its focus.
