In Berlin, the cooperation between the university association German U15 and the Martin Buber Society was further expanded today.
The Martin Buber Society, based in Jerusalem, annually awards five fellowships to outstanding young Israeli and German top researchers. It promotes pioneering research projects in the humanities and social sciences. In the future, the Fellows of the Martin Buber Society will be able to conduct research and teach up to one semester at the member universities of the German U15.
A corresponding Memorandum of Understanding was signed by Prof. Yigal Bronner, Director of the Martin Buber Society, and - on behalf of German U15 - Prof. Günter M. Ziegler, President of the Freie Universität Berlin.
Prof. Yigal Bronner, Director of the Martin Buber Society: "It is important to us that our fellows maintain a close relationship with the German science system during their work in Jerusalem. The U15 universities are ideal partners for this. They stand for excellence, tradition and academic freedom. The aim of the Buber Society is to promote German-Israeli exchange in the humanities and social sciences, and this cooperation is a very important contribution to this. "
Prof. Günter M. Ziegler emphasized: "The Martin Buber Society is a very renowned institution and Israel an extremely innovative science location, especially in the field of humanities and social sciences. We are therefore delighted that the excellent Fellows of the Buber Society will continue their research at the U15 universities in the future."
