For over 40 years, the Friedrich Ebert Foundation has represented the values ​​of social democracy in Africa. It is committed to social justice, democracy, peace and international solidarity on the continent. In long-standing partnerships with political parties, parliaments, trade unions, the media, civil society groups and interested publics, it promotes political exchange between Africa, Germany and Europe.

Together with our partners, we work to enable and strengthen social and democratic political participation in communities. Together with young people we develop future perspectives together. The Friedich-Ebert-Stiftung contributes to the dialogue on peace and security, migration and economic transformation processes. To strengthen the representation of the interests of employees, we rely on political education and international networking.

Global challenges such as climate change, illegal financial flows or migration can only be tackled together with the African states. We therefore advocate treating the states of Africa as Global Partners.
