Knowledge Transfer
For the IRS as a member of the Leibniz Association it is a constitutive aspiration according to the motto “theoria cum praxi” to see the transfer of knowledge as an integral permanent task. Hence it is a significant part of the research agenda: in the research programs, which are determined for three to four years, basic research, applied research as well as the dialogue with the practical world are planned in close coordination on the one hand to provide research results to actors of spatial and urban development in practice, but also to the politics, economy, culture and civil society, and on the other hand to gain new practical insights through the dialogue with the actors and thus to open up new perspectives for research. That is why the transfer of knowledge at IRS is seen as a lively exchange.
