Open Call for the Information Series "Just Fund It!"

For our digital information series on current developments in public funding law, we would like to bring together experts in the field in a thinktank with three initial meetings in order to deepen the discussion of individual topics.

No matter whether we are talking about the so-called Besserstellungsverbot, audit procedures or the possibilities and limits of lump-sum fees and multi-year funding – here is where we get down to business. We are looking for people who would like to take part in the information events and the following work meetings in order to share their knowledge and their practical experience! We are looking for people who have excellent knowledge  of the “funding jungle” and who are interested in pragmatic and specific solutions.

Application Deadline and required Information

The information series will be held in German spoken language. Participation in the meetings will be compensated at the rate of 100 EUR per meeting, additional tasks upon agreement. 

If you are interested, please send an email by January 20, 2026, to Anne Schneider: anne.schneider [at] pap-berlin.de (anne[dot]schneider[at]pap-berlin[dot]de) with the following information:

• Name and professional background

• A note, if applicable, about areas of special interest (e.g. the Besserstellungsverbot, the prohibition on offering different payment levels to holders of positions in the same salary category, …)
• A brief statement about your capacities (participation in one or more work meetings possible/desired)
