In 2016, dekoder received the Grimme Online Award for its innovative concept and its editorial work. Having public-benefit status with the purposes of advancing understanding between nations and education, dekoder is a project of Dekoder-gGmbH (Hamburg).

FSO

The Research Centre for East European Studies (Forschungsstelle Osteuropa – FSO) is an independent research institute attached to the University of Bremen. It is funded jointly by the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs and the State of Bremen. Founded during the Cold War in 1982, the FSO today combines two goals: the (re)examination of societies and cultures in the „Eastern Bloc“ and the analysis of contemporary developments in the post-Soviet region. The Research Centre for East European Studies at the University of Bremen has been involved in the field of knowledge transfer since it was established. Since 2003, a central activity of the Research Centre is the regular online publication of “country analytical digests” (see www.laender-analysen.de).
