MWI: Promoting Office for Initiatives from the "South"
We also contribute financially to the realisation of the ideas of our partners.

Contact person: Richard Brosse

Secretarial AssistanceMartina Enderle

Since its beginnings it has been MWI’s intention to also support financially the theological and philosophical awakenings in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Oceania. This is done through a succession of academic projects of a differing kind:

  • Scholarships in Theology, Philosophy and related disciplines for students from Africa, Asia and Oceania. Since its founding the Institute has been able to support and advise on almost 600 doctorates, not only in Europe but also at a study location in the South. In order to promote an exchange between those studying, annual meetings are organised at various venues in Europe. The doctorands who are being supported by the MWI are to contribute later in their respective countries as professors or part-time lecturers to the further development of an inculturated, contextual theological way of thinking (approx. 50 % of funds).
  • Research projects and programmes which promote contextual theologies and philosophies in the Third World (approx. 10 % of funds). 
  • Specialist conferences on international and regional levels (approx. 28 % of funds) 
  • Publication of theological and philosophical literature (approx. 7 % of funds). 
  • Specialist libraries: Provision of books for theological and philosophical purposes (approx. 3 % of funds).
  • Exchange of qualified teachers as initial aid for young theological and philosophical institutes and universities (approx. 2 % of funds). 

 The financing of the projects and the work of the MWI occurs exclusively through donations for academic purposes.These profit from especially low taxability in Germany and are taken into account for up to 10 % of income. 

We urgently depend on your help for the realisation of the following projects!
