Our calendar does not just list meetings from the Association of German Foundations: all foundations in Germany can announce their events here free of charge.

The German Foundation Congress is the largest congress for foundations in Europe. It takes place on an annual basis, with each congress focussing on a different selection of themes.

To complement events which facilitate a closer exchange of information on the foundation field, the Association also organises issue-based congresses and symposia on current topics.

The Deutsche StiftungsAkademie implements training workshops and certification courses, thereby contributing significantly towards the professionalisation of the non-profit sector.

You can make new contacts and exchange experiences at many of the Association’s events, such as the working group autumn sessions, discussion circles and fora, or regional foundation congresses.

Take a look in our archive to find out more about events, symposia and congresses which have already taken place - for example on the engagement of foundations in environmental protection.
