Dialogue & Education

PRIF combines basic research with an active dialog with society. The transfer of our re­search results to politics, the media and different social groups is a central task for us. 

Science communication is therefore an essential part of our research work. We communicate re­search results in various formats of policy advice and civics education. At the same time, we take up impulses from society so that researchers can integrate them into their work.

We use a variety of instruments for science communication: traditional print pub­lications, blogs, podcasts, videos, participation in parliamentary and ministerial hearings, lectures and panel dis­cussions.

We also have a presence in political Berlin and, in addition to our head­quarters in Frankfurt am Main, have an office in the House of the Leibniz Association. We in­form and advise members of parliament, parliaments, ministries and authorities at state and federal level.
