Our approach to safeguarding science and international research cooperation
We see research safety as a holistic approach anchored in internal structures, an integrated management system, and a targeted awareness and qualification concept. This graph shows how these components interact to form an effective institutional system. Initially, the focus lies on internal structures: identifying strengths, securing premises, protecting intellectual property and ensuring compliance. Building on this foundation, strategic and targeted international cooperation will be integrated to ensure safe partnerships.
Our systematic approach supports you in building a customised framework tailored to the needs of your university or research institution, as well as in training and raising awareness among your staff, researchers and students.
