Freie Universität Berlin adheres to the European Union’s “Guidelines on the Eligibility of Israeli Entities and Their Activities in the Territories Occupied by Israel since June 1967 for Grants, Prizes and Financial Instruments Funded by the EU from 2014 onwards.”

Freie Universität Berlin does not – and does not wish to – maintain an institutional relationship or initiate cooperation with Ariel University. At the same time, the university does not dictate to its researchers with whom they are allowed to cooperate as individuals. Researchers and other university members are, however, reminded to always observe the Statutes for Safeguarding Good Research Practice.
