German-Belarusian Society (dbg)

The dbg was founded as a non-profit, non-partisan organization in Berlin in 1999 to promote greater understanding and cooperation between actors in Belarus and Germany. Through our projects in the areas of society, culture, politics, economy, and science, we help foster exchange and networking between the two countries. The dbg works extensively with other non-governmental organizations (NGOs), think-tanks, members of government, experts, activists, and artists.
