Upholding this philosophy of Heinrich Dräger, the Dräger Foundation – established in 1974 – wishes to bring people together to jointly develop ideas for the future within the framework of an international exchange. Previous conferences of the Dräger Foundation that dealt with questions of energy security and climate change brought the oceans and their significance for the world’s climate, biodiversity, and human life into the Foundation’s focus. The oceans cover some 70% of the Earth’s surface, provide 97% of its water supply, boast more than 50% of its biodiversity, and through their vast resources and raw materials form one of the foundations for the quality of human life.

New Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity   Alfred Wegener Institute and University of Oldenburg to Intensify Cooperation in Marine Biology [13
ALFRED-WEGENER-INSTITUT HELMHOLTZ-ZENTRUM FÜR POLAR- UND MEERESFORSCHUNG Cooperation Downloads New Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity Alfred Wegener Institute and University of Oldenburg to intensify cooperation in marine biology [13. October 2016] Marine ecosystems provide us with food and raw materials, they have an impact on air quality and global climate, they break down harmful substances and serve as places of recreation and tourism. The functioning of these ecosystems – and thus also the basis for human well-being – depends on the biological diversity of the oceans. The way climate change and human influences change marine biodiversity will in future be examined by scientists in a new institute: as was recently decided by the senate of the Helmholtz Association, the Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity will be set up next year in Oldenburg. The new institute will pool and expand the research excellence in this field of the University of Oldenburg and the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) in Bremerhaven. Joint press release: Alfred Wegener Institute and University of Oldenburg During the development phase from 2017 to 2020, the state of Lower Saxony is planning to finance the new institute with 23 million euros; among other things, the funds will go towards a new building in Oldenburg. From 2021 the institute will be primarily supported by the Helmholtz Association, and other partners from within and outside the association will join the research activities at the Oldenburg site. Contact Science "We are delighted to be able to take our research into the impact of global change on the marine Thomas Brey environment to the next level with the new Helmholtz Institute," says AWI director Prof.
