Guiding Principles for our Actions

The Guiding Principles for our Actions in the Leibniz Association are an association-wide code of conduct and were drawn up in close collaboration with a group of Senate and Executive Board members and the central ombudsperson of the Leibniz Association. The draft was discussed within the Sections and presented to the member institutions of the Leibniz Association by the Executive Board. The General Assembly unanimously adopted the Guiding Principles at the end of 2019.

The Guiding Principles for our Actions in the Leibniz Association are a self-commitment, particularly in the areas of management, sustainability and transparency, both for the individual member institutions and for the association as a whole. They are fleshed out by other Leibniz Association guidelines and fundamental documents, and are intended to support both strategy development and day-to-day actions in our institutions.
