Ingmar Lippert

Great news: starting end of 2009, I will be living at Trebitz, just an hour away of Berlin. Visit me! :)

My plan is to use the time in Trebitz to work out a draft of my PhD, i.e. complete analyses and translate my oberservations into readable chapters.

Ingmar Lippert completed bis undergraduate studies at Brandenburg University of Technology (Cottbus, Germany) and Bosporus University (Istanbul, Turkey) in Environmental and Resource Management (B.Sc.) in 2005.

Having grown up partially at the yearly festival Open Ohr at my home city Mainz, the organisers decided to theme this year's Open Ohr "Himmel, Arsch & Zwirn", focussing on the role of belief in today's society.

For the opening forum of the festival a diverse group of actors has been invited to discuss the theme publically: representatives of religions, or rationality, ... and me. They asked me to comment on knowledge and science as a belief system. I am more than happy to join this discussion :)

See you at the 35th Open Ohr?! Would be great :)

300 kilometers from 1pm to 7pm! This was the time we needed to hitch-hike from the outer areas of Istanbul to the border with Bulgaria. Among the lifts were a police guy with his gun and some other interesting Turkish fellows.

Supervised by Christoph Lau I am currently doing a PhD on environmental and sustainability managers. The empirical phase started off at the headquarters of a multinational within the financial services sector.

More to follow soon at ems-research.org.

During the last weeks I have been dedicating much of my free time to the new website of the Environment, Management and Society Research Group. Check it out :)
