DIE STIFTUNG Competitors

The Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) is committed to a free and just society based on solidarity, to a vibrant and strong democracy, to decent work and international responsibility. We, that is about 1,500 employees worldwide, do this through political education, political consulting, the promotion of talented students, international cooperation in more than 100 countries and through our Archive of Social Democracy. Bonn and Berlin are the two main locations, along with 16 other sites in Germany. We support around 2,800 scholarship holders annually. Our library contains 1 million publications and we issue around 260 of our own publications annually. More than 100,000 people take part in our events in Germany every year. Our archive material – laid side by side – would amount to 56 kilometers. The FES is the oldest political foundation in Germany – founded in 1925 and named after the first democratically elected Reich President Friedrich Ebert. As a non-profit institution, we shape our work independently and autonomously. Imprint: https://www.fes.de/impressum Privacy policy: https://www.fes.de/datenschutzhinweise

An operating foundation, rather than a funding organization, which considers itself an engine of reform and a promoter of social change toward a sustainable society. It aims to identify social challenges and problems early on and to develop and implement model solutions. Its programme carries out think-tanking activities and policy consultancy which focus on the future of the European Union and its relations with neighbouring regions.
