To help you navigate the website, we’ve put together some guidance on how to use it.

In the top left corner, you’ll find the website logo, which you can click at any time to return to the homepage. On the right side, you’ll find icons for Easy Language and Sign Language, allowing you to switch to accessible versions of the content. These icons are visible whenever there is an accessible version available—for example, in Easy Language or Sign Language. The version for people with hearing impairments presents the content of a page in video format using German or International Sign Language.

Next to these is the language toggle between German and English, available when a translation exists for a specific article.
Beside that is the so-called "hamburger menu" symbolized by three horizontal lines. When you open this menu, you gain access to the main sections of the website.

At the very top of the menu, you’ll find the search function.
At the bottom of the menu, you’ll find links to events, our contact page, and a subscription option for our newsletter. At the very bottom are links to our social media channels.

To stay up to date, feel free to follow us on our social media platforms.

Click the cross symbol to close the menu.

On our homepage, you will find a variety of content: current articles, announcements about events and publications, videos and podcasts from our media library, as well as featured topics and dossiers.

Just before the footer, you’ll find another overview of the menu items, our contact details, a link to all Heinrich Böll Foundation offices across Germany, our international offices, thematic portals, media libraries, and Green websites.

Legal information such as data protection policies, the imprint, image credits, and our accessibility statement can be found at the bottom of the page.
