The EU co- funded project “Democracy Starts with You! is implemented in the three South Caucasus Countries by  Konrad Adenauer Stiftung. The Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) is a political foundation. In Germany, 16 regional offices and two conference centers offer a wide variety of civic education conferences and events. Our offices abroad are in charge of more than 200 projects in more than 120 countries. The foundation’s headquarters are situated in Sankt Augustin near Bonn and in Berlin. There, an additional conference center, namely the Academy, was opened in 1998.

KAS is proud to bear the name of Konrad Adenauer. The first chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany’s name and principles are our guidelines, duty, and obligation. Established in 1955 as “Society for Christian-Democratic Civic Education”, the Foundation took on the name of the first Federal Chancellor in 1964.

At home as well as abroad KAS civic education programs aim at promoting freedom and liberty, peace, and justice. KAS focuses on consolidating democracy, on the unification of Europe and the strengthening of transatlantic relations, as well as on development cooperation.
