Connexus International gGmbH

Connexus International gGmbH is a Berlin-based nonprofit dedicated to international cooperation between the Global North and Global South. We specialise in Nature-based Solutions (NbS), agroecology, climate adaptation, and participatory capacity building. With a PhD-led team and 40+ partner organisations across MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Europe, we bring field expertise in biodiversity conservation, indigenous seed preservation, cooperative development, and community resilience. We coordinate the Coalition Marocaine pour l'Agroécologie (17+ members) and manage multi-country programmes with proven MEL frameworks.
We design and implement multi-country programmes across the MENA region, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Europe, working alongside civil society organisations, grassroots movements, and academic institutions to advance social justice and democratic participation. To date, Connexus has convened multi-stakeholder encounters bringing together youth and social movements from over 24 countries across four continents — fostering cross-cultural dialogue, shared learning, and collaborative problem-solving.

Our work is organised around five thematic pillars:

1. Popular Education and Transcultural Communication

2. Agroecology and Climate Justice

3. Youth Participation and Democracy

4. Critical Knowledge and Capacity Building

5. Human Rights and Migration

Rooted in participatory methodologies and horizontal pedagogy, we ensure that programme beneficiaries — particularly youth, women, and marginalised communities — are active co-creators of development processes, not passive recipients of aid.
