About In­Urban

The In­stitute for In­ter­na­tional Urban Re­search (In­Urban) is a non-profit re­search or­ga­ni­sation founded by re­se­ar­chers from the Urban Re­search Unit (TEAS) at Freie Uni­ver­sität Berlin. We offer ex­pertise in the ana­lysis, eva­luation and ma­nagement of pro­cesses in urban and re­gional con­texts. Our work fo­cuses on the im­ple­men­tation of re­search pro­jects, the pre­pa­ration of expert re­ports and the or­ga­ni­sation of sci­en­tific events. InUrban's clients are fe­deral and state mi­nis­tries, local aut­ho­rities, as­so­cia­tions, the Eu­ropean Union and the private sector. In­Urban is an in­stitute of the In­ter­na­tionale Aka­demie Berlin gGmbH (INA). The In­ter­na­tionale Aka­demie Berlin für in­no­vative Pä­da­gogik, Psy­cho­logie und Öko­nomie gGmbH (INA) is a non-profit or­ga­ni­sation. It is an in­sti­tu­tional um­brella or­ga­ni­sation under which a number of in­sti­tu­tions have joined forces.
