KAS

Konrad Adenauer Stiftung

Freedom, justice and solidarity are the guiding principles of the work of Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS). KAS is a political foundation closely associated with the Christian Democratic Union of Germany (CDU). As co-founder of CDU and first German Chancellor, Konrad Adenauer (1876-1967) combined Christian social, conservative and liberal traditions. His name stands for the democratic reconstruction of Germany, the anchoring of foreign policy in a transatlantic community of values, the vision of European unification and the orientation towards the social market economy. His intellectual legacy continues to be both a task and an obligation for us.
Through our European and international Cooperation, we are committed to enabling people to live in freedom and dignity with self-determination. We make a value-oriented contribution to ensuring that Germany fulfils its growing responsibility in the world. We want to inspire people to shape the future in this spirit.
