Enabling people to be self-determined and self-reliant, thereby creating positive change on an economic and social level in the long term – this is the vision that drives our daily work at the knodel foundation. We want to play a sustainable role in ending the great inequalities between rich and poor in this world. That’s why we strengthen projects in countries of the global South and at the same time are committed to helping the global North – especially Germany – to develop an understanding of global interrelationships and its own role in the world. What is particularly important to us? A sense of community that focuses on exchange at equal terms and a belief in a better world for all people, regardless of origin, gender, skin color, religion or other affiliations.
