In collaboration with
ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius
Hamburg’s liberal spirit and Gerd Bucerius’ open-minded way of thinking are the two sources of inspiration that have made the ZEIT-Stifung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius what it is today. Next to its flagship institutions Bucerius Law School and Bucerius Kunst Forum and engagements in educational and cultural projects, the foundation promotes innovative research through scholarships and the facilitation of inter-disciplinary and intercultural exchange. Convinced that the representation of scientific perspectives in public discourse is vital for democratic decision-making, the ZEIT-Stiftung seeks to strengthen quality journalism and a free media landscape across Europe.
