Rich in tradition the Minerva Stiftung is the oldest of all German-Israeli cooperation programmes and up to today is being funded by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF). The Minerva Stiftung stands for exceptional scientific research and cooperation as well as for deep confidence and friendship.
Minerva Fellowships are not only intended to promote research but also to strengthen the cultural and scientific exchange between Germany and Israel. Younger scientists (graduates and post docs) get the possibility to further their scientific background while they conduct a research project at their host institution in Israel or Germany. To date, more than 1700 Minerva Fellowships have been awarded to German and Israeli researchers since the start of the programme in 1973.
