The research group Popular Culture(s) of Die Junge Akademie is organising a two-day workshop on 'theory in literary texts'.

The members of Die Junge Akademie meet in Berlin to discuss their work and to plan new endeavours. 

On the occasion of the project Wissensstadt Berlin 2021 („Berlin - City of Knowledge 2021“), the city of Berlin as a location for research and science is presenting itself to a broad public in numerous events this year.

With an event titled "Remembering, differently?", Die Junge Akademie is also participating in the project. Our members will discuss forms of remembering and possibilities of historiography in the arts and sciences.

The Junge Akademie's KlimaLectures event series focuses on global warming and human factors influencing the Earth's ecosystem. In the fifth event, geoecologist Sönke Zaehle (Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry) will give a keynote lecture in which he will report on the 6th cycle of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Assessment Reports and shed light on the development of the current report of Working Group 1 (The Physical Science Basis). He will then discuss with current and former members of Die Junge Akademie and the participants of the event about current questions on climate change and in particular about the role and challenges of reporting cycles like those of the IPCC in advising politics and society.

In this workshop, the members of the E-Topia project group Isabelle Dolezalek, Michael Saliba, Simon Wolfgang Fuchs, and alumnus Christian Stein explore the possibilities and potential of VR/AR formats in teaching and in science communication.

With the joint project "Wissensstadt Berlin 2021", Berlin as a location for research and science is presenting itself to a broad public this year by means of numerous events.  

Die Junge Akademie is participating with several activities. Among other things, it will be represented with two booths as part of a day of action on July 2, 3-8 p.m., on the square in front of the Rotes Rathaus. At the booth "Wissen auf die Hand", representatives of Die Junge Akademie will answer all questions about research and science. Next door at “Research on the rocks" glacier drilling can be tested - especially by the little ones.
