Centrum für internationale Migration und Entwicklung (CIM)
What we stand for CIM stands for expertise on international labour mobility and migration. We believe that the expertise acquired by individuals (individual expertise) offers tremendous potential for development – whether through our placement services, networks or advisory services. In the right place and at the right time, just one person can provide the momentum needed to bring about crucial changes and pave the way for innovation. Hence our motto: ‘One person can make a difference’. All our work is guided by global development goals (sustainable development goals SDG?). We aim to promote the positive impact of migration and global labour mobility in order to improve the prospects of people living in developing countries and emerging economies. What makes us different We help to drive change in our partner countries by sourcing personnel with the required skills. We place experts in key roles all over the world and help put the issue of migration on the global agenda. We strengthen the bridges between Germany and its partner countries and promote forms of cooperation from which we all benefit. We develop innovative ideas so that knowledge can flow where it is needed and make a lasting contribution to development in our partner countries.

The founding principles of the TUHH are unique in Germany. The priority of research, an interdisciplinary approach, innovation, regionalism and internationalism are the obligatory foundations for what we do. Research, teaching and technology transfer are centered around the guiding theme of developing technology for people. Mission Statement: TUHH is a competitive entrepreneurial university focussing on high-level performance and high quality standards. TUHH is dedicated to the principles of Humboldt (unity of research and education). TUHH has a strong international orientation and also focusses on its local environment. It does so by contributing to the development of the technological and scientific competence of society. Aiming at excellency at the national and international level in its strategic research fields. Educating young engineers and academics within demanding programmes using advanced teaching methods. The TUHH as a Driving Force for Reform Success is the result of innovative and courageous action. The history of the TUHH is a history of this kind of success. At few if any German universities have so many reforms been initiated and unconventional approaches been adopted so consistently as at the Hamburg University of Technology. Best of all, these reforms were developed by the TUHH itself. To develop technology for people has been one of the TUHH’s founding missions since 1978. Innovation within the technological sciences is, of course, its primary task, but innovation of the TUHH itself is a part of the motivation and a basis for the success of teaching, research, technology transfer, and continuing education.
Výzkumný ústav práce a sociálních věcí, v.v.i.
The institute’s history dates back to the beginning of the previous century, when the first labour and social affairs research centre, the Social Institute of the Czechoslovak Republic, was founded (1919). The research work done by today’s RILSA is based on these traditions and is also inspired by the activities of related institutes and research centres across Europe. In line with Act No. 341/2005 Coll., on public research institutions, on 1 January 2007 the legal form of the Research Institute for Labour and Social Affairs changed from a state contributory organisation to a public research institution. The institute’s principal activity is applied research on labour and social affairs issues at a regional, national and international level; this research is formulated in line with the current requirements of state government authorities and possibly non-profit or private entities. The institute also provides consulting services for the users of research outputs, organises seminars and conferences and publishes specialist materials. Research projects are planned every year in collaboration with the institute’s founder and other concerned parties and take into account the continuity of the development of science and research in the areas in question. The institute’s chief research fields are: the labour market and employment; social dialogue and labour relations; social protection; the family; equal opportunities; incomes and wages; social policy theory. Another integral part of the institute is the department of library and information services. By a decision of the institute’s founder and in close cooperation with the Faculty of Social Studies of Masaryk University in Brno, a RILSA research centre was established at Joštova 10, 602 00 Brno.

The main activities of the Society are: Publication of the journals Econometrica, Quantitative Economics, and Theoretical Economics. Publication of a research Monograph Series. Organization of scientific meetings in six regions of the world. History Ragnar Frisch is at the origin of the Econometric Society. Along with Charles Roos and Irving Fisher, he convened an organization meeting in December 1930 in Cleveland, where the American Economic Association, the American Statistical Association and the American Mathematical Society were holding their annual meeting. Joseph Schumpeter chaired the 16-strong meeting, which founded the Econometric Society and elected Irving Fisher as its first President.

The Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) was established in 1999 to promote democratic debate on the most important economic and social issues that affect people’s lives. In order for citizens to effectively exercise their voices in a democracy, they should be informed about the problems and choices that they face. CEPR is committed to presenting issues in an accurate and understandable manner, so that the public is better prepared to choose among the various policy options. Toward this end, CEPR conducts both professional research and public education. The professional research is oriented towards filling important gaps in the understanding of particular economic and social problems, or the impact of specific policies. The public education portion of CEPR’s mission is to present the findings of professional research, both by CEPR and others, in a manner that allows broad segments of the public to know exactly what is at stake in major policy debates. An informed public should be able to choose policies that lead to improving quality of life, both for people within the United States and around the world. CEPR was co-founded by economists Dean Baker and Mark Weisbrot. Our Advisory Board includes Nobel Laureate economists Robert Solow and Joseph Stiglitz; Janet Gornick, Professor at the CUNY Graduate School and Director of the Luxembourg Income Study; and Richard Freeman, Professor of Economics at Harvard University.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) envisions a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty in the region. Despite the region's many successes, it remains home to a large share of the world's poor: 263 million living on less than $1.90 a day and 1.1 billion on less than $3.20 a day. ADB assists its members, and partners, by providing loans, technical assistance, grants, and equity investments to promote social and economic development. ADB maximizes the development impact of its assistance by facilitating policy dialogues, providing advisory services, and mobilizing financial resources through cofinancing operations that tap official, commercial, and export credit sources. Origins ADB was conceived in the early 1960s as a financial institution that would be Asian in character and foster economic growth and cooperation in one of the poorest regions in the world. A resolution passed at the first Ministerial Conference on Asian Economic Cooperation held by the United Nations Economic Commission for Asia and the Far East in 1963 set that vision on the way to becoming reality. The Philippines capital of Manila was chosen to host the new institution, which opened on 19 December 1966, with 31 members that came together to serve a predominantly agricultural region. Takeshi Watanabe was ADB's first President. During the 1960s, ADB focused much of its assistance on food production and rural development.
