The Andrea von Braun Foundation pursues the two interrelated directions:
Methodically, we support interdisciplinary cooperation among fields of knowledge separated far from one another.
Contentwise, the understanding, maintaining and care of so-called ecological boundary areas in in our dominant focus. By this term we mean areas where different types of biotopes interact. Among these are marsh or peat fields, mangrove forests, savannahs, tidelands, brackish waters etc. Usually, they will involve wet or moist areas, but not large bodies of water like the high seas or major lakes. In this context we are not only concerned with purely biological or ecological issues, but also with the cultural, economic, social and educational structures in such areas.
We expressly welcome non-academic endeavours and projects.
There is no particular deadline for applications at the moment.
