Informationsdienst Wissenschaft, scientific information service distributes its contents via various channels. In addition, idw works together with selected content partners in order to optimise the outreach of news and events


After consulting with Informationsdienst Wissenschaft, content partners embed the selected idw contents into their own program, such as research findings from chemistry or personnel news from universities.

How do I become a content partner?

Prerequisites for an content partnership with Informationsdienst Wissenschaft are:

  • your institution belongs to one of the following groups: broadcasting corporation, publisher, government office, platform provider aimed at one or more idw target groups (journalists, scientists, students, teachers / professors, school children, general public with an interest in science)
  • our news and events are not the only editorials or current content on your websites
  • you indicate individual sources of the shared news and link back to the original article in idw
  • you make a clear and distinct reference to the cooperation with Informationsdienst Wissenschaft both on your websites and in your General Terms and Conditions
  • idw has your permission to refer to you as their outreach partner on idw web pages
  • you inform idw on the access numbers of the shared contents
  • you do not share everything, but rather a part of the our contents
Technical interface:

For the purpose of automatic sharing of Informationsdienst Wissenschaft news and events, we will provide content partners with a powerful API with login details and a documentation. The interface delivers all idw news and events and comes with numerous built-in filters, allowing the contents to be filtered according to:

  • type of news or events (e.g. research findings, research projects, personnel announcements or conferences, symposia, (annual) conventions)
  • subject areas (e.g. biology, medicine, electrotechnology, society or bundled topics such as health or technology & industry)
  • target groups (e.g. journalists, scientists, teachers or professors)
  • region or range (e.g. Berlin, Bavaria or regional / supraregional)
  • language (German / English)

Sharing our contents is generally free of charge. However, Informationsdienst Wissenschaft charges you a non-recurring fee for setting up the API and also – when necessary – for creating additional filters for contents.
