Migrant Workers Solidarity Movement
Migrant Workers Solidarity Movement is an initiative, funded by the Bewegungsstiftung, aimed at empowering migrant workers and activists in Berlin to fight for fair labor conditions, policy change, and social justice. By building alliances across low-wage and tech sectors, this project will provide training, workshops, peer-mentoring, assemblies and collective action support to equip migrant communities with the skills to organize, advocate, and lead campaigns for their rights in the workplace. The goal of the project is to enable migrant workers to better fight against systemic barriers to decent work, like discrimination, limited access to unions, sub-contracting, low wages, and exploitative labor practices. Join us in creating a more equitable Berlin where migrant worker voices are heard, rights are protected, and solidarity drives real change. Together, we can build a stronger, more inclusive future for all!

Energy Literacy for Youth (ELY)
This project aims to empower young people with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to address environmental challenges through a comprehensive environmental literacy program. Targeting middle and high school students, the initiative integrates hands-on learning experiences, such as community clean-ups, tree planting, and water conservation projects, with classroom-based education on topics like climate change, biodiversity, and sustainable living. By partnering with schools, local environmental organizations, and youth groups, the project creates a dynamic learning environment that encourages critical thinking and active participation. The program also emphasizes the importance of environmental justice, teaching students how marginalized communities are disproportionately affected by environmental issues. Through workshops, mentorship, and digital resources, the project equips youth to become advocates for sustainability in their communities, fostering a generation of environmentally conscious leaders who can drive meaningful change.
