DAAD New York Looks Back on 50 Years! |
|
|
|
"Our time has taught us that nothing is for granted, unpredictable things can happen that turn the whole world upside down and that it is worth it to work hard to accomplish change. International academic exchange is an achievement that can be lost again, which can be impaired and constricted. But combining the best of the two sides of the Atlantic can bring up solutions even for the hardest challenges."
-Benedikt Brisch
Director, DAAD New York, 2019 - Present
