The focus is on the big questions of our time: How can we better prepare for future pandemics? How can we effectively protect biodiversity and the climate while achieving resilient agriculture for food security? And how can historical experiences from fundamental disruptions and crises help to make our societies more resilient?
To address these complex issues, the Leibniz Labs systematically bring together the Leibniz Association's extensive knowledge and make it usable for societal practice. To this end, the Labs involve stakeholders from society, politics and business. By tapping into the strong innovation and transfer potential of the Association, they can act as catalysts and pioneers for societal transformation processes.
With the new "Leibniz Labs" format, the Leibniz Association is strengthening its interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary excellence. A distinct project will support the three funded Leibniz Labs through comprehensive networking and reflection, thereby enabling the Association to capitalize on the insights gained for future initiatives.
