In our 鈥淕lobal Issues鈥 support area, we are committed to achieving peaceful coexistence worldwide. To this end, we are addressing the core social challenges of our time.

We want to:

  • promote sustainable and inclusive peace by supporting locally-led peacebuilding
  • reduce systemic inequalities 
  •  tackle the climate crisis by promoting climate-resilient land use 
  •  shape a stronger sense of community in an immigration society
  •  strengthen democracy, and
  •   ensure dignity in migration

Working towards this goal, we focus on the interrelationships between these individual issues and also support cross-thematic strategic partnerships.

We particularly strive to amplify the voices of those who have thus far been largely unheard in public and political spheres alike.
