Regularly, the institute pioneers topics and approaches such as comprehensible stakeholder involvement, transdisciplinary working groups on disability issues, NGO conferences on employment policy and measures, housing-related empowerment, and the situation of student mothers, which are taken up at a later stage by major institutions and political parties."
