When printing the research magazine, we only use wood that comes from responsible forestry. We print climate neutrally and support important environmental projects. In 2021, we support a mountain forest and climate project in the Allgäu region (Germany). For the 2020 issue, we donated money to the climate protection project at Virunga National Park in the D.R. Congo to protect the habitat of mountain gorrilas. For the 2019 edition, we financially supported regional projects in the Harz Mountains, Germany.
All topics are discussed or determined together with the Research and Young Scientific Academics Commission, the Research Funding Unit and Prof. Dr. Thomas Mannel, the Prorector for Research and Junior Scientists. The main requirement for the decision is that it is cutting-edge research that is future-oriented.
