Insert picture in this contribution The Postdoc Academy for Transformational Leadership is an initiative of the Robert Bosch Stiftung and a joint project of the Robert Bosch Stiftung and the four academic centres Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (IRI THESys) [https://www.iri-thesys.org/], the Institute for Sustainable Development and Learning at Leuphana University of Lüneburg [https://transdisciplinarylearning.org/], the Stockholm Resilience Centre [https://www.stockholmresilience.org/] and the Dutch Research Institute for Transitions (DRIFT) [https://drift.eur.nl/] in Rotterdam. It provides an intensive high-end training with four seminars in two years that broaden the research competencies of postdocs and promote their qualifications towards transdisciplinary leadership. The program also offers seed funding (e.g. for stakeholder meetings or proposal writing activities) to small groups of participants, who plan to initiate research collaborations. Furthermore, an active network of current and former participants of the program will be established. ISDL signed up now to collaborate also in a third round for which applications will be open as of January 2020.
