Max Planck Law has officially launched its dedicated alumni network and web page, creating a global community that connects current and former researchers. This new initiative aims to foster continued collaboration, mentorship opportunities, and knowledge exchange among the extensive network of Max Planck Law scholars and professionals.
The alumni network will provide a central hub for maintaining meaningful professional relationships between researchers and practitioners in Law and related disciplines who have been part of Max Planck Law. It is a significant advancement in strengthening the global presence and impact of Max Planck Law, creating a resource that benefits both established and emerging scholars and professionals.
A distinctive feature of the network will be a mentoring programme, which pairs experienced alumni with current researchers and early-career professionals. This initiative recognizes the wealth of expertise within the alumni community spanning academia, legal practice, and policy development among others. The mentoring relationships foster knowledge transfer across generations of legal scholars while providing practical guidance for career development within various sectors.
Members of the alumni network will receive regular updates on cutting-edge research developments, upcoming events, and exclusive opportunities within Max Planck Law. Daniela Dora, our Alumni Relations Manager, is excited for the future:
I envision our alumni network as an influential professional community with extensive mentoring relationships spanning academia, legal practice and policy development, becoming an essential resource that Max Planck Law researchers value throughout their careers. We will also support the growth of regional hubs with dedicated alumni ambassadors who actively promote collaboration and organize local events that complement our main initiatives.
Former researchers at the Institutes in the Max Planck Law network are invited to register through the dedicated form on the Max Planck Law Alumni webpage that has just opened. As the network grows, it will continue to evolve with additional features and programmes designed to support the professional development and collaborative potential of the Max Planck Law community worldwide.
