Mission & Vision
Our mission is to support the federal government, states, and municipalities with sound scientific expertise and practical solution approaches in shaping sustainable living environments. We promote innovations in construction and housing, analyze demographic and spatial developments, and advise decision-makers in designing effective funding programs. In doing so, we place great importance on sustainability, equality of living conditions, and digitalization.
Target groups
The offers and funding programs of the BBSR are aimed at cities and municipalities in Germany, specialized departments and administrations at the federal, state, and local levels, associations, industry and the construction sector, scientific institutions and research facilities, as well as civil society actors and interested parties. The goal is to support practice and policy with evidence-based analyses, guidelines, studies, and programs in order to jointly address the challenges of demographic change, climate adaptation, and affordable housing.
