The project “BildungsLandschaft Oberfranken (BiLO)” (Educational Landscape of Upper Franconia) is funded by the Oberfrankenstiftung (Upper Franconian Foundation) and is situated at the Leibniz Institute for Educational Trajectories (LIfBi), an independent research-based infrastructure facility affiliated with the University of Bamberg. The project started in January 2014 with a 5-year duration and has been extended until March 2020 at no extra cost as part of its initial funding. 

The project proposal has been submitted by Prof. Dr. Hans-Günther Roßbach, Dr. Michael Bayer and Dr. Michaela Sixt. Due to Prof. Dr. Hans-Günther Roßbach's retirement 2017, Dr. Michaela Sixt took over as Project Manager.
