You probably heard the news that unless new financial backers are found, the Deutsche Post Foundation will shut down IZA at the end of 2025. It is a devastating development for economics and economic research in Germany, especially at a time when the Trump administration is severely censoring and defunding academia in the United States.

It is obviously not the main point of the FT piece, but it is notable that the piece quotes several Bluesky posts published by economists.
