Institute
About us
The IfS Institut für Stadtforschung und Strukturpolitik is a private social-scientific research institute based in Berlin.
From mid-1970s on we have been working in applied research. We are preparing analysis, expertise, evaluations and concepts to support and advice public and private decision makers. Our clients are primarily federal and state ministries, local authorities and the European Union.
We work in an interdisciplinary team of scientists and maintain a supra-regional and diverse network of cooperation partners.
