Position paper
„Public Anthropology – Challenges, Competencies, and Structural Requirements“
As part of the closing workshop of the DFG network „Public Anthropology,“ held in Berlin from 30 June to 1 July 2025, a position paper was developed to provide guidance for the stronger integration of public anthropological work – both within the two ethnological disciplines in Germany and beyond. The position paper is therefore addressed to colleagues at all career stages within the ethnological disciplines, as well as to universities, funding bodies, and policymakers interested in the sustainable establishment of publicly engaged research and teaching in the social sciences and humanities.
