For us, meaningfulness means making a difference
We stand for effective, sustainable work and a common goal. For over 65 years, we have been supporting children in need around the world and campaigning for their rights. Our aim is to enable them and their families to live in dignity and with good prospects for the future – free from poverty, exploitation, and violence. This goal motivates us every day!
For us, appreciation means supporting each other
We are always looking for motivated people who share our goals and values to join our organization. In return, we offer an attractive and meaningful work environment. Appreciation and trust are always at the forefront of what we do. It is very important to us that our employees feel comfortable and can develop both professionally and personally. We work continuously to shape the working environment at Kindernothilfe in line with the needs of our employees.
For us, diversity means openness to people and different perspectives
Diversity is very important to us: Kindernothilfe attaches great importance to diversity, equal opportunities, and open exchange. These principles are not only represented by us as an organization, but are also actively promoted and lived by all employees wherever possible. When people from different backgrounds come together it enables an open discourse and new possibilities.
Our goal is to continuously learn, act more inclusively, and thereby become even more diverse.
As a globally active NGO, diversity is written into our DNA. We practice our recognition and appreciation of all people not only in our project work, but also in our daily collaboration. We are aware that we each view the world from our own perspective.
The more diverse our employees are, the more diverse their perspectives and experiences are. This enables us to act more consciously and work towards a fairer future – especially for children and young people.
