<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Das ifa-Forschungsprogramm „Kultur und Außenpolitik“ bietet Expertinnen und Experten die Möglichkeit, zu aktuellen Themen der Auswärtigen Kultur- und Bildungspolitik (AKBP)
zu forschen und an der Schnittstelle zwischen Theorie und Praxis zu arbeiten. Die Forschungsprojekte dauern in der Regel drei bis sechs Monate. In dieser Zeit werden aktuelle Erkenntnisse der Wissenschaft für die Akteure der Auswärtigen Kultur- und Bildungsarbeit
knapp und präzise aufgearbeitet, Handlungsempfehlungen für künftige außenpolitische Maßnahmen formuliert sowie Expertengespräche und Diskussionsveranstaltungen initiiert.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Das ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen) schreibt folgendes Forschungsprojekt aus:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Die Digitalisierung beschränkt sich nicht wie bisher auf eine optimierte Rationalisierung von Routinevorgängen, sondern entwickelt eine eigene Dynamik und ist disruptiv.
Welche Veränderungen für das menschliche Leben die Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) in den nächsten 20 Jahren bringen wird, ist daher völlig offen. Sicher ist nur, dass die Entwicklung nicht linear, sondern wesentlich schneller, vielleicht sogar exponentiell stattfinden
wird. Die Digitalisierung macht auch vor der Auswärtigen Kultur- und Bildungspolitik (AKBP) nicht halt, sondern bietet für diese viele Chancen im Hinblick auf einen besseren Zugang zu Bildung und Kultur, der Sicherung vorpolitischer Freiheitsräume, aber auch
hinsichtlich einer besseren Vernetzung mit den Mittlern, der Zivilgesellschaft und sonstigen Dritten. Zudem spielt die Verteidigung der Freiheit von Kunst, Wissenschaft und Meinung auch in der digitalen Welt eine wichtige Rolle. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist
interessant zu sehen, wie andere Länder mit den Möglichkeiten der Digitalisierung und dem erforderlichen Transformationsbedarf umgehen. Folgende Fragen sind daher von Interesse:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Welche Konzepte existieren vor allem in Bezug auf die drei Schwerpunktthemen Zugang zu Bildung und Kultur, Sicherung von Freiheitsräumen und bessere Vernetzung?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">ifa’s Research Programme “Culture and Foreign Policy” provides experts with an opportunity to study current topics related to Germany’s foreign cultural and
educational policy and to work at the interface between theory and practice. Research projects normally last three to six months. During this period, the experts involved in the project provide actors in the area of international cultural relations with clear,
concise summaries of the latest academic findings. They formulate recommendations for future external policy strategies, initiate expert dialogue and organise discussion forums and events.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen) invites proposals for the following research project:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Digitalisation does not limit itself, as was the case previously, to an optimised rationalisation of routine processes, but develops its own dynamics and is
disruptive. Which changes for human life Artificial Intelligence (AI) will bring in the next 20 years is therefore completely open. What is certain is that the development will not be linear but much faster, perhaps even exponential. Digitalisation does not
stop at foreign cultural and educational policy (German: AKBP), but offers many opportunities such as better access to education and culture, the protection of pre-political free spaces, but also regarding better interconnectedness with intermediary organisations,
civil society and other third parties. In addition, defending the freedom of art, science and speech also plays an important role in the digital world. Against this background, it is interesting to see how other countries deal with the possibilities of digitalisation
and the necessary transformation needs. Therefore, the following questions are of interest:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Which concepts exist, predominantly with regard to the three main topics of access to education and culture, securing free spaces and better interconnectedness?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
