| This SRZ-website will soon be replaced by a new one.
In 1991 SRZ Ltd. was established as an independent Urban + Regional Research institution by members of staff of the former Vienna Urban Research Institute (Institut für Stadtforschung). It is owned and managed by the people who work here, it is not government funded and not affiliated with university institutions. SRZ's economic base are research contracts and research subsidies. Among the institutions commissioning or funding SRZ research projects are several Austrian Federal Ministeries, Austrian regional governments, city councils, the Austrian Chamber of Labour, and the European Commission. |

In the early nineties, activities at SRZ were focussed on traditional subjects of urbanism and spatial development. Since then new social science approaches have been explored and our professional practice now covers a multitude of research areas. In 2009 SRZ Ltd. closed its office at Lindengasse in Vienna, but continued to operate as SRZ association with reduced staff. For each of the research areas you will find the appropriate expert within SRZ's scientific team. The team certainly deserves to be called interdisciplinary: it combines the academic qualifications of architecture, sociology, political sciences, town and country planning, psychology, business management and computer science. |

| If you are interested in previous projects carried out at SRZ you are welcome to glance through the productions. However, the abstracts there are presented only in german. This is true for the comments and the description of the SRZ staff also. |
