The Association of Feminist Single Mothers - FEM.A is an independent, non-partisan, non-denominational feminist association. FEM.A advocates the values enshrined in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. FEM.A advocates the values of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence, also known as the Istanbul Convention, which was ratified by Austria in 2014. As feminist single parents we demand self-determination and independence for our lives. That is why FEM.A demands that Austrian politicians create laws that enable single parents to live self-determined and financially independent lives. FEM.A envisions a world in which women's and children's rights are recognized as human rights. In such a world, neither women nor children live in fear of violence. The Association of Feminist Single Mothers - FEM.A fights for strong mothers and their right to a carefree life. For their children and their right to a happy childhood. The association mainly addresses women, since 91% of single parents with children under 15 years old are women. It has a clearly feminist and progressive orientation, in which the self-determination of the single parent is the main focus. FEM.A is increasingly educating the public about the grievances and major hurdles faced by single mothers. FEM.A provides political leaders with important impulses to improve the sometimes frighteningly precarious situation of single mothers and their children. We work independently of political parties and are not affiliated with any political party or organization. We provide hands-on help to single mothers in need through our phone helpline, which is available on working days from 3 pm to 6 pm. We help single mothers to educate themselves on topics ranging from family law, education, career opportunities, psychology and many others. For those in need, we can allocate free-of-cost first consultation at specialized lawyers, psychologists, coaches and other specialists.

KOPF, HAND + FUSS gGmbH (KHuF) is a nonprofit organization based in Berlin, Germany, dedicated to shaping a society in which inclusion is not just an idea but a lived reality. Since its founding in 2010, KHuF has worked to promote full and equal participation of people with disabilities and disadvantages by removing barriers and creating inclusive, empowering spaces. At the core of KHuF's mission is a deep belief in the value of diversity and the right of all individuals to access education, employment, and community life. The organization sees difference not as a deficit, but as a strength - and strives to create environments where people can thrive, regardless of their physical, cognitive, social, or cultural background. KHuF's work spans four main areas, each contributing to a comprehensive strategy for greater inclusion: Digital Projects KHuF develops barrier-free digital tools that support learning, communication, and empowerment. These include: IRMGARD, an app that helps adults with limited literacy learn to read and write. LAYA - Learn As You Are, an inclusive eLearning platform accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. HANDschrift, a learning platform in German Sign Language (DGS) to improve written language skills among Deaf adults. AInfach, a project exploring how artificial intelligence can support people with learning difficulties in their working lives. Inclusion Quiz, a multilingual digital tool for accessible and playful learning about inclusion. Inclusive Coworking Space - TUECHTIG With TUECHTIG, KHuF operates a unique coworking and event space that is fully accessible and explicitly designed to welcome people with and without disabilities. It fosters collaboration, visibility, and a sense of community. The space also hosts The Soul Office, a project offering direct psychological support in the workplace. Academy KHuF provides free and inclusive educational workshops and trainings in Berlin that raise awareness, reduce prejudice, and empower participants. These are co-led by experts with lived experience (people with disabilities) and cover topics such as accessibility, communication, mental health, and inclusive work environments. Projects like SPEED and Soul Mate additionally focus on youth empowerment and inclusive mental health support, respectively. Inclusion Consulting KHuF offers hands-on consulting services to public institutions, nonprofits, and businesses looking to implement inclusion effectively. This includes participatory website audits, inclusive design, organizational change processes, and workshops on inclusive communication and accessibility. Across all of these areas, KHuF works with a large and diverse team of experts - many of whom bring their own experiences of disability or marginalization. The goal is to ensure that inclusion is never a top-down process, but something shaped with those who are directly affected. Values That Drive the Work KHuF's mission is guided by these core values: Participation - Everyone should be able to contribute and be heard. Equity - Not the same for everyone, but fair for each person. Respect - For different perspectives, lived experiences, and needs. Openness - To new ideas, people, and approaches. Empowerment - Supporting people to gain confidence, skills, and autonomy. Innovation - Using creative and digital solutions to remove barriers. Our Vision KHuF envisions a society where inclusion is the norm, not the exception. A society in which people are not defined by their limitations, but recognized for their abilities, talents, and contributions. To get there, KHuF builds bridges: between people and ideas, between problems and solutions, and between diverse life worlds. "Our goal is to build bridges - between people, ideas, and lived experiences - and between challenge and solution."
