Among the Institute’s main activities are teaching, conducting scientific research and publishing. Employees and associates of the Institute actively participate in teaching classes at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate level as well as other institutions (Centre for Croatian Studies). In their teaching they use research results obtained from scientific projects carried out by the Institute. Scholarly works published by the Institute are actively used in the teaching process.
In 2015. Institute co-organized two international conferences: The Future(s) of Post-Socialism (conference proceeding under review in SUNY Press) and Theorizing Myth, Trauma and Memory in Central and East European Cultural Space (conference proceedings are published in the volume Myth and Its Discontents | Mythos und Ernüchterung. Memory and Trauma in Central and Eastern European Literature | Zu Trauma und (fraglicher) Erinnerung in Literaturen des zentralen und östlichen Europa, eds.
