Registration is now open for the Max Planck Law Annual Conference 2023, taking place at Harnack House in Berlin from Tuesday 31 October to Wednesday 1 November. The conference theme this year is ‘Crisis’ (see call for contributions below). Alongside an internal and an external keynote, the programme will feature individual presentations and Institute showcases on the conference theme, a session on career options that do not require a German state exam, as well as space for the researcher-led Max Planck Law Initiatives to present themselves. Please see the provisional programme below for more detail.
The conference is preceded by an induction afternoon for new researchers within the Max Planck Law network on Monday 30 October. Everyone who joined their Institutes over the last year or so is cordially invited to join us for the induction which will feature sessions on a choice of topics, including starting a research project; finding your way around Max Planck Law, the Max Planck Society and the various programmes available to support your research and your career; life in Germany and German academia; embarking on the postdoc journey.
When registering for the Conference please indicate whether you would like to take part in the induction.
Travel and accommodation arrangements: A convenient located hotel is Seminaris. A limited number of rooms at Harnack House will be made available on a first come, first served basis from the end of August. We’ll send registered participants an update when these rooms become available for booking.
Please book your travel and your accommodation through your Institute. All Institutes dispose of funds earmarked for Max Planck Law events so that you will not have to fund attendance out of your normal travel allowance.
