History and Politics
How the past impacts the present: Our History and Politics department aims to create a deeper understanding of historical events and political contexts. Our projects highlight how the past shapes our present and how we can successfully shape the future. International conferences, history competitions, history festivals or spaces of remembrance in digital worlds: We work with dedicated experts from politics, academia and civil society, both nationally and internationally, and strive to strengthen democratic values and social cohesion.
