Description

The Reimar Lüst Award for International Scholarly and Cultural Exchange, co-funded by the Fritz Thyssen Foundation and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, honors up to two distinguished scholars annually in the humanities and related fields. The award recognizes individuals who significantly advance bilateral scientific and cultural cooperation between Germany and their home countries, serving as vital connectors and multipliers in international academic exchange. The prize, established in memory of Reimar Lüst, is intended to fill a gap in German funding by specifically celebrating internationally respected humanities scholars who promote German scholarship abroad and foster enduring academic partnerships.
