(agl) is the nationwide umbrella organization of 16 Eine Welt-Landesnetzwerke (one world-federal networks) supports its members in their engagement of a future-oriented global development which is based on the principles of social justice, ecological lastingness, democracy and participation. agl reaches through its member's associations nationwide about 10,000 developing-political groups and associations. agl supports the educational, information and project work of its members. It links up activities and campaigns to topical central topics of interest and organises the exchange and flow of information between the federal networks by communication offers, advanced training and interlinking meetings. One World groups, federal networks and agl form together the structure within whose campaigns, plans, information and educational attempts from the developing-political area to transporting down in regional and local connections, positions and activities of the regional and local initiatives at regional state and national level are discussed. With our actions and campaigns we have asked governments and the Landtag (federal state parliament), the Federal Government, Bundestag (Lower House of Parliament) during the last years over and over again to go outside the box and into the direction of a fair and sustainable development. We support Eine Welt-Politik (one-world politics) as a cross-cutting task of all political areas of the Federal Government and the State Government. We are contacts for north south questions for the respective state
governments and other social groups.

• We get on as a forum for Eine Welt-political discussions.
• We offer services for our members, for local initiatives and disseminators.
• We get on as a megaphone of underprivileged sections of the population especially in the countries of the south.

By public-relations actions in the area of the developing-political domestic work we sensitize the people for world questions and motivate for behavioral changes in personal and political area.
