history

In 1982 Jens Mittelsten Scheid founded the anstiftung as a non-profit research company to research and promote self-employment, subsistence (also in an urban context) and sustainable action in everyday life. In 2003, anstiftung launched the Interkultur Foundation project , which focused on researching and promoting intercultural and international gardens . In 2008 the foundation was merged with the ERTOMIS foundation, founded in 1973 by the parents of the founder, Erich and Charlotte "Totti" Mittelsten Scheid, to form the foundation anstiftung & ertomis gGmbH and has appeared again as an foundation since 2017, now in the form of a non-profit foundation Right.

Purpose and goals

In accordance with the statutes, the anstiftung promotes science and research as well as public and vocational education with a focus on resource protection, doing it yourself in the form of social, cultural and manual work, eco-social (alternative) forms of economy, neighborhood and regional networking as well as intercultural exchange and the participation of Minorities. The aim of the foundation is to create infrastructures and spaces through which sustainable action in the form of do-it-yourself is possible in everyday life.

Specifically, the promotional and advisory offer is aimed primarily at three types of initiatives: urban and intercultural community gardens, open workshops (such as fab labs , bike kitchens, etc.) and repair initiatives ("repair cafés"). What these projects have in common is the non-commercial orientation, the making accessible and sharing of knowledge and the democratization of technologies and tools according to open source principles. By means of networking meetings, workshops, webinars and information materials that the foundation organizes or provides, actors from the projects mentioned interact with one another and further develop the empirical knowledge that is generated there.
