The German Institute for Human Rights, Berlin, informs about human rights issues in Germany and in other countries. Its intention is to contribute to the prevention of human rights violations and to the promotion and protection of human rights. The various functions of the institute include information and documentation, research, policy advice und human rights education within Germany. The Institute co-operates with international and national partners. In particular, it is concerned with the promotion of human rights treaties, with issues in the framework of security policy, peace policy and human rights, and with strategic issues with regard to human rights policy. The Institute offers seminars, lectures, and services in the field of human rights education. The Institute was founded in March 2001 following an unanimous decision by the German Bundestag of December 7, 2000. Three federal ministries provide the financial basis of the Institute: the Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development.

One World work, World Church theology, intercultural communication and conflict management are the areas in which many committed people have taken seminars and continuing education courses at our head mission office for more than ten years now.
Process-Oriented Themes
The process-oriented themes are related in an interactive process involving participants and partners as well as experts in the head mission office: from Dialog Lernen (learning the dialog - 1992), Nachhaltige Solidarität (sustainable solidarity- 1995), and Neue Nachbarschaften (new neighbors - 1999), to today's main focus on Differenzen und Allianzen (differences and alliances) as well as Solidarkompetenz (solidarity competence).
Within the framework of the 'A Soul for Europe' program, the 'Ecumenical Village' (Graz, 1997) and 'Neue Modelle von Solidarität im heutigen Europa lehren und lernen' (teaching and learning new models of solidarity in today's Europe) 2000/2001, have represented important contributions.
Recognition
These programs have been and continue to be supported by the European Union as well as church and state authorities.
Solidarity workshops represent high-quality continuing education measures for students of social and educational professions, members of social groups and programs focus on:
Agenda 2000
the monitoring of the financial markets (ATTAC)
One World
minority problems
topics on environmental/ecological sustainability
the gender issue
in Central Europe (at present Romania, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Austria, the Netherlands, and Germany).
