The joint research programme of the German science academies - the Academies' Programme (external link) - serves to open up, safeguard and research our cultural heritage. It is the largest research programme in the humanities and social sciences in Germany and is internationally unique. With their long-term basic research, the academies make an indispensable contribution to the documentation of our cultural memory and to the formation of national and transnational cultural identity. Since 1979/80, the Academies' Programme has been jointly funded by the federal and state governments. In the Academies' Programme, around 900 employees work on around 130 projects (external link) in over 190 workplaces. With the editions, dictionaries and text corpora they produce, the academies create central knowledge repositories for the future, which are available to academics and the public - increasingly also digitally.

The projects in the Academies' Programme are coordinated by the Union of Academies (external link). The Union of the German Academies of Sciences and Humanities is an association of eight German science academies in Berlin, Düsseldorf, Göttingen, Hamburg, Heidelberg, Leipzig, Mainz and Munich.
