Global network
To fulfil its mission – the exploration of System Earth - the GFZ has always had a worldwide network of international cooperation.
The GFZ is firmly anchored within the European Research Area, which often serves as a breeding ground for our global cooperations. Since the foundation of our research centre, we are involved in more than 180 EU projects. The project office supports you substantially in your European projects.
International research – national funding programs
Besides European collaboration, the international cooperation with non-European countries is a particular priority for the GFZ. This is demonstrated by the high proportion of foreign employees, international project cooperation’s and worldwide networks of the GFZ. German funding organisations provide a broad range of support measures for international cooperation.
