The institute is currently conducting joint research into food safety, labour markets, working and social standards, as well as into combatting the causes of migration and flight.
The institute focuses on the legal situation before, during, and after humanitarian crises, the way they affect society and institutions, as well as the way nations and organisations respond to them.
The team at this institute analyses how behaviour is generated in the brain and what we can learn from nature to further the development of technological systems.
The past and the present of social movements constitute the research subject at the institute, which focuses primarily on the labour and union movement in terms of both education and research.
