Leibniz Labs
PRIF is participating in three Leibniz Labs, a new funding format of the Leibniz Association. From April 1, 2024, the three Leibniz Labs will each receive three million euros from the research association over a period of three years. PRIF is involved in the following Leibniz Labs: “Pandemic Preparedness”, “Systemic Sustainability” and “Upheavals and Transformations”. The aim of Leibniz Labs is to make the best possible use of the Leibniz Association's interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary experience, expertise and potential in order to make a strong contribution to solving pressing social issues. Leibniz Labs primarily rely on the integration of the diverse existing knowledge of all Leibniz institutions. Leibniz Labs develop formats that support problem solving across disciplinary boundaries and by incorporating knowledge and perspectives from politics, business and society. PRIF will participate in selected formats of the labs in 2026. Other Hessian institutions are involved in the respective labs.
