Dr. Jože Ramovš graduated from social work in 1975, in 1978 from theology and in 1986 he took his PhD degree from anthropology at Anton Trstenjak at the Faculty of Theology. In the years from 1988 to 1992 he finished a post-graduate specialization from Frankl's logotherapy and existential analysis at Elisabeth Lukas in Germany, where in the years from 1999 to 2003 he qualified himself for the trainer of partners communication. At the forefront of his research, pedagogical and action-development focus are primarily: co-existence in solidarity; communication among young, middle and third generation; personal preparation for quality ageing and preparation of the society for large proportion of the older population; addictions and intoxications. In these areas, he develops and introduces new programmes based on anthropo-hygiene; this is the preventive concept of everyday selfhelp and solidarity, developed on the basis of holistic anthropological concept of a human and on the methodology of social learning in groups. He follows the principle of inseparable connectedness among research, pedagogical and practical action development work in the field of disciplines devoted to work with people. His scientific and professional bibliography  includes over a thousand units.
