my project - Mein Projekt


I am sure that we cannot separate the topics of climate protection, human and animal rights, women's rights, refugee aid, waste of resources and consumer terrorism, environmental protection and veganism. Many active groups form a colorful culture and any project, that deals with these topics should get attention and support. 
On my journey around the world, I gather informations on these exciting topics in all countries and meet activists, to exchange ideas with them and to support local projects. Here are a few examples:
Ich bin davon überzeugt, daß wir die Themen Klimaschutz, Menschen- und Tierrechte, Frauenrechte, Flüchtlingshilfe, Ressourcenverschwendung und Konsumterror, Umweltschutz und Veganismus nicht voneinander trennen können. Viele aktive Gruppen bilden eine bunte Kultur und jedes Projekt, welches sich mit diesen Themen auseinandersetzt, sollte Aufmerksamkeit und Unterstützung bekommen. 

Auf meiner Reise um die Welt sammle ich in allen Ländern Informationen über diese spannenden Themen und treffe Aktivisten, um mich mit Ihnen auszutauschen und lokale Projekte zu unterstützen. Hier sind ein paar Beispiele:
