We employ a range of approaches to attain our objectives:

• We develop analyses and policy recommendations.
• We publish studies, policy papers and other written materials in collab­o­ration with partners and external specialists.
• We host confer­ences, expert talks and forums, ranging from inter­na­tional events to informal discussions.
• We bring together individuals from politics, academia, business and civil society.
• We facil­itate sound policy discus­sions and political education.
• Our websites, first and foremost libmod.de, serve as platforms for debates.

LibMod is a non-profit limited liability company (gGmbH), which is legally barred from making profits and is obliged to use all fund alloca­tions for charity purposes as per our statutes.

Our financing is derived from project funds from public in- stitu­tions, private founda­tions, and associ­a­tions as well as donations. Moreover, we receive insti­tu­tional funding from the federal budget like other think tanks and educa­tional insti­tu­tions. The use of our funds undergoes regular auditsby both our donors, the Federal Audit Court (Bundesrech­nungshof) and the financial administration.
