(1/5) Im Spätsommer 2024 setzte die #unibern mit der «Initiative Afrique» einen neuen Schwerpunkt - nun wurden beim Community Meeting wichtige Entscheidungen getroffen: #initiativeafrique

International migrants are the largest source of international aid. This is an often underappreciated benefit of migration for global poverty reduction.

Eine Studie der #unibern und der Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) kommt zum Schluss, dass sich die #Ozeanzirkulation im Nordatlantik, zu der auch der #Golfstrom gehört, in den vergangenen 60 Jahren noch nicht abgeschwächt hat. Diese Ergebnisse widersprechen bisherigen Annahmen: sohub.io/n1ua.

In der #Schweiz haben Kinder aus Akademikerfamilien – bei gleichen Leistungen – eine doppelt so grosse Chance auf einen #Hochschulabschluss wie Kinder von Nichtakademikern. Warum das so ist und was die Forschung dazu sagt 👉 sohub.io/k7jq.
