The Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) is the oldest political foundation in Germany with a rich tradition in social democracy dating back to its foundation in 1925.
Friedrich Ebert was the first president of the Reich (The Weimar Republic) from 1919 to 1925. He advocated the establishment of the parliamentary Democracy, understood himself as president of all Germans and practiced a policy of social equality.
In Albania, FES started its activities in 1991 with a conference on democracy and market economy. Democratic political institutions and the socio-economic development were and are the main topics of our activities.
