Center for International Dialogue and Cooperation
Democratic socialism is, historically and by its essence, committed to international cooperation and solidarity. The international activities of the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation aim to provide political education by means of social analysis, programmes and projects for democratic and social emancipation and developing capabilities for political action.
The most important areas of international cooperation are social and democratic participation, empowering politically and socially disadvantaged groups, alternatives for social development, conflict prevention and peaceful conflict resolution as well as the future of the European Union. To these ends, the Foundation cooperates with different organisations, left and democratic socialist parties, trade unions, women's organisations and the new social movements. It is active in more than 25 countries and participates in the process of the World Social Forum. Since 2000, projects have been funded by the Ministry for Economic Cooperation (BMZ) and the Foreign office (AA).
Regional framework projects have been established in:
- East and Central Europe (future development of the EU and transformation processes)
- the post-Soviet region
- Latin America (democratic and social participation, local politics, strengthening civil society)
- South and South East Asia (transformation, "socialist market economy" and peace and international security, intercultural and inter religious dialogue, women and media)
- Southern Africa (strengthening civil society, democratic and social participation, post-Apartheid development strategies).
- Middle East
