The Institute of Knowledge, Research and Society is led by a small, interdisciplinary group of scholars and practitioners with long-term experience in academic research, education, public history, and international cooperation. The Institute’s leadership brings together expertise in Holocaust and genocide studies, Roma Studies, memory and interethnic relations, and the ethical application of digital and AI-based research tools in the humanities and social sciences. At this stage, the Institute operates through its directors, who are jointly responsible for strategic direction, research priorities, and institutional partnerships, while building a foundation for future programs and collaborations.
