Call for Nominations for the Klaus Töpfer Sustainability Fellowship

Deadline: 20.01.2019 Scholarships

With the Klaus Töpfer Sustainability Fellowship, the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) in Potsdam wants to honour individuals who, like Klaus Töpfer, are committed to sustainable development and build bridges between science, politics and society.

IASS is seeking nominations for people from Germany or abroad who have worked for many years on sustainability issues and have the potential to shape the future. The nominees should bring innovative ideas from their respective fields in science, the arts, civil society, business, politics or other areas of society.

Fellows will be selected by an international commission with the support of the Board of Directors, Advisory Board and General Assembly of the IASS. Fellowships will be awarded for one year.

For the duration of their fellowship, the IASS provides the fellow with an office space and the infrastructure they require to carry out their work as well as € 50,000 to cover material costs. Fellows also receive an appropriate expense allowance.
