About FES Connect

Connecting people, in the spirit of social democracy, we source and share content in English from the German and international network of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung.

After four years and 45 issues of FES Connect, we are going to take a creative pause. We’d like to thank you, our readers and contributors. You turned a simple newsletter into a lively community and online portal sharing progressive approaches to global challenges. But it is time to take a step back and develop new and exciting things for you.
