Call for Fellowships
The Käte Hamburger Kolleg Rohstoffwelten – Kulturen im Umbruch, based at the University of Kassel and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space, will be established as an international and interdisciplinary research center with its official start in August 2026. The Kolleg is dedicated to interdisciplinary research on the global transformation of raw material worlds (Rohstoffwelten) and the profound cultural, aesthetic, political, economic, social, and ecological changes associated with them. Embedded in the University of Kassel’s strong profile in research on sustainability, critical arts, the humanities, and global political economy, the Käte Hamburger Kolleg brings together international fellows and early career scholars. It offers a space for collaborative, theory-driven, and empirically grounded research on the possibilities and conflicts of contemporary material and cultural transformations and energy transitions.
