Excellence Awards in Global Economic Affairs
The aim of the Excellence Award since 2007 is to build a community of the brightest young researchers in the area of global economic affairs. These researchers are to be given intellectual, financial, and administrative support – based on the Kiel Institute’s generous resources – to pursue focused programs of research in designated areas.
