Strengthen our educational work
A small contribution with a big impact.
Why donate?
Your donation helps us in these areas
History and civic eduation
History comes alive when we connect it to the present. We examine historical events to see what we can learn from them for the future and how we can take responsibility. What matters to us in this process is what matters to people personally. Only then can we meet as equals, understand one another, and develop ideas together about what a more just world might look like.
Intercultural and inclusive exchange
Our projects bring together people from a wide variety of backgrounds, languages, and abilities. We break down perceived barriers and show how we can all work together toward a common goal. Empathy and openness to new ideas form the foundation for getting to know one another. Our goal: to create ways of living together that include everyone.
Civic engagement
With us, participants learn to take a critical look at their surroundings and themselves. Our mission is for people to leave our projects asking themselves: what can I do to help? Because every contribution, big or small, counts when it comes to making the way we live together a little fairer.
Democracy and participation
Democracy thrives when people take part. Through workshops, simulation games, project work, and innovative methods, we show how this can be done. To help other organisations use these ideas, too, we develop materials and handbooks that we make available online free of charge or upon request.
Joining forces
Together, we can achieve more. That’s why we build on strong, long-term partnerships with organisations and institutions around the world. When we learn from one another and support each other, we can grow together and help build more supportive and inclusive communities.
Financial support
Donations help create learning spaces for young people.
The Kreisau-Initiative brings people together and encourages them to help shape a democratic future. To make this happen, we rely on your support: our work is funded almost entirely through fixed-term grants. Only a small portion covers the running costs of our office, the majority goes directly into our projects. This is exactly where a donation makes a difference. It gives us the flexibility to act, creates stability, and enables us to keep spaces open for encounters, exchange, and shared learning.
