Arbeitskreis für Entwicklungspolitik und Selbstbesteuerung e.V.

Qui sommes-nous

Our working group for development policy and self-taxation is a charitable association with approx. 100 members. With the help of self-taxation the promoters of the intitiative finance development aid projects which - contrary to the unfair living conditions in the Third World - support justice. Since the end of the sixties, the group has collected about 1 million German Marks through self-taxation to support self-help organizations in that part of the earth which was exploited at that time and still is. It is our objective to contribute to create "One World" in which the realization of the human rights becomes a reality of life that can be experienced by all people.

Therefore, we support only projects

- which are not supported by major development aid organizations,
- to which we have direct access through intermediaries,
- which are wanted and supported by the population itself,
- which lead to a change of consciousness and appropriate living in our country.
