Berlin Global Village – the One World Center in Berlin is a visible place for people, initiatives, and organizations committed to social change and global justice. As a center with a clear stance, it is also a vibrant network and a social space of cooperation—for both users and visitors.

Around 50 development-focused and migrant-diasporic NGOs work here. The public event spaces host a wide range of political and cultural programs for the city’s communities. As the operator of the center, Berlin Global Village gGmbH promotes collaboration, exchange, and networking, and pools resources through shared infrastructure and opportunities.

As a center, we are both a place with an attitude and a network. As the operator of the center, Berlin Global Village gGmbH aims to promote cooperation and pool resources - through encounters, exchange and networking - and the shared infrastructure in our building.
