Last week on 15. November 2024, the IGCS team came together in #Berlin to reflect on a remarkable journey as we near the end of our current funding period in December 2024.
Over the years, we have accomplished so much together: carrying out joint research projects, teaching at German and Indian universities, individual exchanges as well as summer- and winter schools and workshops that bridged disciplines, and supported over 100 scholars, driving research collaborations and innovation in sustainability. It was a heartfelt experience to revisit memories, celebrate our collective achievements, and acknowledge the dedication of everyone who contributed to making this partnership a success.
As this chapter closes, we eagerly look forward to the next phase of Indo-German collaborations in sustainability. This partnership has shown how shared visions can lead to impactful outcomes, and we remain committed to nurturing these bonds to address pressing global challenges.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this transformative journey, Prof. Dr. Klaus Reicherter, Dr. Anna Kathrin Uffmann, Lisa Van Aalst and Rahul Govind Rajkarnikar from RWTH Aachen University, Prof. Dr. Nicola Fohrer, Dr. Uta Ulrich and Lukas Paul Loose from Kiel University, Prof. Frank Behrendt and Dr. Khulud Alsouleman from Technische Universität Berlin, Dirk Weichgrebe, PD Dr.-Ing. habil. and Dr. Mozhiarasi Velusamy from Leibniz Universität Hannover, joining online were our team memers from Indian Institute of Technology, Madras– Prof. Dr. Krishna Vasudevan, Prof. Dr. Sannasiraj S A, Prof. Dr. Ashwin Mahalingam, Prof. Dr. Vinu Ravikrishnan and Ruthramoorthy Senthamaraikannan, and Prof. Dr. Tatjana Schneider from GTAS Braunschweig-we couldn’t have done it without you!
