Hans-Böckler-Stiftung, Research foundation in Düsseldorf, Germany.
The Hans-Böckler Foundation is a research organization in Düsseldorf focused on economic and social topics. The building houses several departments and institutes that conduct analyses and provide information on labor markets, worker participation, and social policy.
The foundation was established in 1977 through the merger of two earlier organizations under the German Trade Union Confederation. This founding shaped its focus on independent research into labor and economic issues, a direction that continues today.
The foundation supports research projects on economic and social topics that directly relate to workers' concerns and labor issues. Visitors can observe how the spaces are used for meetings and exchange, where different experts and scholars gather.
Visits can be arranged by requesting an appointment in advance with the organization. The central location in Düsseldorf makes the building easily accessible by public transportation.
The building houses a specialized institute for macroeconomic research that focuses particularly on German economic trends. This institute was integrated later and brought a new dimension to the foundation's work.
