In 2023, Germany's expenditure on R&D in humanities and the arts stood at 2.85 billion USD PPP. The forecasted data for the period 2024-2028 indicates a gradual increase from 2.9 billion USD PPP in 2024 to 3.15 billion USD PPP by 2028, reflecting year-on-year growth rates of approximately 2.07% to 2.32%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for this five-year period averages around 2.08% annually. This suggests a steady commitment to investing in these fields.
Future trends to watch for include international collaborations, increased digitization in humanities, and potential shifts in funding priorities due to economic conditions or government policy changes. Monitoring these areas will be crucial for stakeholders.
