Society and Culture program brings together a variety of projects that concern social and cultural issues with a closer focus on social problems. As social problems are an endless source for finding solutions and new approaches, in the North their effects sometimes are even more dangerous - even threating whole communities and their residents individually, rather than single human beings. Projects are built around strictly psychological and sociological working groups, medical working groups and IT cooperation schemes.

Projects in this program are: Suicide Prevention, TelemedicineInfectious Diseases
