International Cooperation
Science and research is conducted within a national and international context. The DFG operates at various international levels in order to network and promote excellent research in Germany on a global scale.
The DFG supports international cooperation in all its funding programmes. In order to facilitate transnational research cooperation, it maintains relations with a large number of foreign partner organisations. As a politically independent funding organisation, the DFG plays a strategic role in international research policy and is member of various scientific and science policy organisations and bodies at European and global level.
