Margherita von Brentano Prize

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Margherita von Brentano Prize has been awarded by the Free University of Berlin (FU) since 1995 for outstanding scientific achievements or projects in the field of women’s advancement or gender research. The award was initially made annually, and finally every two years.

The award is named after the philosopher and feminist Margherita von Brentano . In 1970 she was the first woman to be elected to the university's executive committee. In 1971 she completed her habilitation and one year later was appointed to a professorship at the University's Philosophical Institute. With 15,000 euros (since 2011, previously 11,000 euros or 20,000 German marks), the prize is the highest endowed award for gender studies and women's projects in Germany. The award is made by the President at the suggestion of the university's central women's council.
