The new UfU Yearbook “Ecological Debate” has been published since 2020. You can find the current issue here.

In addition, the institute’s newsletter “UfU-Informationen ” has also been published regularly since 2020 with news about UfU and its projects, events and publications in the form of an e-mail newsletter. You can find the first and most recent issue here.

The previous format, the magazine “themen und informationen”, will thus be replaced. However, magazines published in the past can still be ordered by sending an e-mail to info@ufu.de. You can find an overview of the latest available editions on this page. Older available copies are listed here.
