As an operational foundation, the Foundation for People and the Environment initiates a wide variety of projects with the aim of strengthening the relationship between people and the environment and thus protecting and promoting biodiversity.
With the "Deutschland summt!" initiative, the foundation has succeeded in drawing attention to the issue of (wild) bee conservation and building up a city network that has been active for years. Cooperation between various stakeholders is promoted through the design of near-natural areas, the creation of participatory offers and other projects. The foundation's aim is to raise awareness of the connections between our natural habitats and our daily consumption, life and work and to inspire the general population to adopt lifestyles suitable for grandchildren.
