Leibniz Association
The Dubnow Institute has been a member of the Leibniz Association since 2018 and actively participates in the association’s collective research and networking initiatives. The Leibniz Association connects around 100 independent research institutions, whose orientation ranges from the humanities over economics, spatial research, and social sciences through to natural sciences, engineering, and environmental studies.
Leibniz Research Network »Eastern Europe«
The network collects transdisciplinary expertise focusing on Eastern Europe from among the Leibniz Association. It is the point of contact for politics and the locus of collaborative initiatives in the field of knowledge dissemination, research infrastructures, and scholarly dialogue.
Leibniz Research Alliance »Value of the Past«
What value does the past have for past and present societies? How is this value created and conveyed? These questions are at the core of the Leibniz research network »Value of the Past«. Its members examine in German, European and global dimensions how historical evidence is shaped by language, mediality and digitality, how ideas of space and time shape images of history, and how the past as a resource is used for community processes and identity conflicts as well as in an ever-growing historical market. The association was founded as successor of the Leibniz research association »Historical Authenticity«.
Leibniz Lab »Disruptions and Transformations«
The Leibniz Lab »Disruptions and Transformations« shows how politics and society have reacted to fundamental challenges in the recent past. In this way, the Lab generates actionable knowledge for the future. It pools the expertise of 28 Leibniz institutions.
The Dubnow Institute is participating in the Leibniz Lab, in particular through the project »A Time Capsule and Digital Space: The Archive of the Photographer Rita Ostrovska«.
