AFOS Foundation promotes entrepreneurial initiatives in Africa, Asia and Latin America to establish a fertile environment for socially responsible and skilled employment in the long term. In this way, we sustainably improve living conditions in our partner countries. Through professional advice and the mobilization of networks, we work together with committed companies and local partners to promote independent and responsible entrepreneurship. Long-standing personal relationships with our partner countries form the basis for our successful work. Our topics are just as diverse as the challenges: job creation and formalisation, the Training and qualification of young people with a focus on women, sustainable management in harmony with nature and its limited resources, dealing with the consequences of climate change and ultimately avoiding the causes of migration and flight. More than ever, we are convinced that independent and responsible entrepreneurship has the potential to contribute to addressing these complex challenges. AFOS supports local people in taking the initiative themselves to build a dignified life. For themselves and their families, but also for others in the sense of the common good.
