International Politics in Germany

International Politics in Potsdam We do not just maintain the dialogue with our international partners in our project countries, but also inside Germany. Since 1995, the International Academy for Leadership (IAF) in the Theodor Heuss Academy in Gummersbach has been the forum and the centre for international dialogue and intercultural exchange.

Conferences and evening activities focussing on international subjects are another aspect of our work in Germany. In these meetings they discuss hot political topics and long-term development perspectives with highly knowledgeable international and German experts.

Another point of reference in Germany are the regional departments in the head office in Potsdam which are the interface between the regional offices abroad, the funding institutions and the politically interested public:

• Central, East and South East Europe, South Caucasus and Central Asia and Mediterranean countries
• Latin America and Africa
• Asia
• European Institutions and North America
