| Following the motto "Observing,
Analysing, Acting", Germanwatch has been actively promoting North-South
equity and the preservation of livelihoods since 1991. In doing so, we
focus on the politics and economics of the North with their worldwide consequences.
The situation of marginalised people in the South is the starting point
of our work. Together with our members and supporters as well as with other
actors in civil society we intend to represent a strong lobby for sustainable
development. We endeavour to approach our aims by advocating fair trade
relations, responsible financial markets, compliance with human rights,
and the prevention of dangerous climate change.
Germanwatch is funded by membership
fees, donations, grants from the Stiftung Zukunftsfähigkeit (Foundation
for Sustainability), and by grants from a number of other public and private
donors. |
