The coordination unit (“Z-Project”) will be established at the speaker’s university in Konstanz. Its main tasks can be divided in administrative and coordinative tasks on the one hand, data management and collection on the other. The main administrative tasks will be the organisation of meetings, conferences and publications as well as the development of a common homepage and other external communications. In addition the coordination unit will provide support for the sub-projects in the management of financial resources and other organisational issues. One important task will be the coordination of measures to promote diversity, gender equality and young researchers. Thereby the coordination unit will work in close collaboration with the universities excellent infrastructure (Equality unit, Academic Staff Development, “Zukunftskolleg” etc.). Beyond these mere administrative tasks the coordination unit will be responsible for the coordination of data sources and especially the collection of the structural data of IPAs. These will be at hand for all sub-projects.
