Movement workers
Full-time activists are of great importance for the success of social movements. In their long-term commitment, they build up experience and skills that are invaluable for political work. But those who are active full-time and unpaid in movements cannot pursue a normal job at the same time. That's why Bewegungsstiftung came up with the Movement Workers Programme.
The activists do not receive their money from the foundation, but from a circle of supporters who feel particularly connected to the work of the movement workers. Bewegungsstiftung is not authorised to give instructions, but the activists act independently.
