Jannik Pfister

Academic Coordinator (part time 50%)

I manage the research center and coordinate TraCe’s collaborative work.

As Academic Coordinator, together with Dr. Annika Elena Poppe, I head TraCe’s central office and oversee collaborative research planning. I manage communications with our various partners and am responsible for quality control, budgeting, and documentation. Additionally, I lead our long-term planning for establishing TraCe as an important voice in research and the public beyond 2026. Together with our knowledge transfer unit, I organize key events and manage TraCe’s public presence. Other key aspects of my work are planning and editing our upcoming “Handbook of Transformations of Political Violence” and the internationalization of our research center, including our Visiting Fellow Program.
