research
- By investigating global dis:connections, we are inaugurating a new field of research. It emphasises the role of delays and detours, of interruptions and resistances, of the active absence of connections in global contexts and investigates their social significance.

fellows
- The cornerstone of global dis:connect is the fellowship programme, in which approximately ten scholars come to Munich each year.
