Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung

The Prague Office of the Heinrich Böll Foundation was established on August 21, 1990 – exactly 22 years after the Prague Spring uprising was crushed by Warsaw Pact forces – and became the foundation’s first-ever office abroad. It coordinates the foundation’s regional activities in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary.

The citizens' energy or energy democracy movement is inspired by the vision of a socially just energy transition and has been growing for years all over Europe. Pioneering energy coops and communities, citizens’ collectives and wider partnerships lead the movement while supportive institutions inspired by the same vision continue to play a catalytic role in its development. What is the role of the Heinrich Boell Foundation Offices as a support organisation within the movement?

Karel Schwarzenberg (1937-2023) died on 11 November 2023. We remember him as a passionate European with whom the Heinrich Böll Foundation has always been closely associated. We will miss his foresight, his judgment and his humor.
