The Opel plant in Bochum represents the second phase of industry in the Ruhr region, its establishment a response to the loss of the large coal mines. But now Opel is caught in the maelstrom of the international financial crisis. Bochum is anxious to preserve the plant; its loss would signal drastic changes for the city. The negotiations regarding the future of the Opel plant have unsettled the city like almost no other event has done before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NEXT GENERATION OPEL examines the future of the city and the dreams of its young inhabitants. It\u2019s crucial that we engage with Opel\u2019s young employees and trainees \u2013 those people who do not yet have thirty years of work behind them, but who are at the start of a career and whose future is uncertain before it has even begun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is their vision for the future? How are they experiencing these dramatic weeks and months? What plans \u2013 if any \u2013 are they still able to make, what hopes remain?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
