Gemeinwohl Forum Baden e V

The Gemeinwohl-Forum-Baden e.V. (GFB) is an initiative that has aimed to anchor the common good as the highest principle in society since its founding in 2012. The association focuses on promoting a sustainable and common-good-oriented economy in the region of Mittelbaden.

• Future Market and Future Festival: Annually, the GFB organizes a Future Market and Future Festival, where producers and consumers meet to exchange information about sustainable products and productions and to address the necessary societal developments[2][5].
• Organic Model Region Mittelbaden+: The GFB has successfully established the Organic Model Region Mittelbaden+, which is considered the largest organic model region in Baden-Württemberg. This region works closely with the Schwarzwald Mitte/Nord Nature Park[2][4].
• Climate-Bio-Academy and Food Waste Project: Two of the current focus projects of the GFB are the Climate-Bio-Academy and the Food Waste Project, which aim to promote sustainable agricultural practices and reduce food waste[2].

The main mission of the GFB is to promote an economy that serves the common good and not just the interests of shareholders. The association advocates for healthy, regionally produced food that is made, harvested, and processed in an organic and environmentally friendly manner. Additionally, the GFB supports fair trade practices, a global minimum wage, and the preservation of social standards[2].

• Sustainable Economy: The GFB promotes a post-growth-oriented economy, where social progress does not necessarily have to be linked to overall economic growth. The focus is on an economy that uses resources efficiently and is environmentally friendly[2].
• Climate Protection: Through initiatives such as the Climate-Bio-Academy and collaboration with other organizations, the GFB actively works on reducing CO2 emissions and promoting climate-friendly practices[2][4].
• Social Justice: The GFB supports initiatives for a global unconditional basic income and advocates for the enforcement of social standards to create a fairer society[2].

The Gemeinwohl-Forum-Baden e.V. is a dynamic and committed initiative that advocates for a sustainable, socially just, and environmentally friendly economy in the region of Mittelbaden. Through its diverse projects and initiatives, the GFB significantly contributes to promoting the common good and creating a better future for all.
