Lisa Schrimpf has been supported by a doctoral scholarship from the Ökohaus Foundation since April 2024. She is doing research on the legal punishment of crimes in labor education camps.
Lisa Schrimpf studied ethnology, sociology and history at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. In her sociological master's thesis, she dealt with the survival possibilities of children in the Rwandan genocide, while her master's thesis in history dealt with the resistant and resilient behavior of Frankfurt police officers under National Socialism. The latter study was awarded the 2021 Kopper Endowment Fund Exam Prize at Goethe University's Institute of History. From 2022 to 2024, Lisa Schrimpf was a member of the Studienkreis Deutscher Widerstand 1933-1945 e.V. and the historical site Adlerwerke: Fabrik, Zwangsarbeit, Konzentrationslager. Between March and August 2023, she conducted a preliminary study on the Heddernheim labor education camp for the Fritz Bauer Institute, funded by the City of Frankfurt's Department of Culture.
