The aim of the event was to present the achievements of the Pact for Research and Innovation as well as the research funds allocated through competitive procedures to both political decision-makers and the scientific community. The research network coordinated by ZEW, “Non-Cognitive Skills: Acquisition and Economic Consequences”, was selected because of its international and interdisciplinary approach to networking with universities. The presentation in Berlin was organised in collaboration with the Zentrum zur Erforschung von Intentionen und Intentionalität of the University of Konstanz.
The research network “Non-Cognitive Skills: Acquisition and Economic Consequences” investigates issues related to the creation of human capital, such as the causes and consequences of the acquisition of cognitive and non-cognitive skills over the course of an individual’s life.<o:p></o:p>
