KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER

 

The transfer of knowledge was an important objective of Topoi. To this end, the Cluster created a broad range of activities giving access to knowledge for both the scientific community and the broader public. Research findings are reflected in numerous publications, exhibitions, and events; regular press releases were issued to inform the media. Topoi also organized activities such as public lecture series or exhibition tours open to both an academic and non-academic audience.
