Ferdinand first fell in love with the creative uprising of Syrian civil society in 2011 - and from then on accompanied them with Adopt a Revolution through revolution and uprising, as well as war and flight movements. As a campaigner, he likes to sharpen things up, but can also keep an issue going for the long haul, or push through the last few miles of a long bike trip
Christin lived, worked and engaged herself activistically for almost 9 years in Syria and Lebanon for the demands of the peaceful Syrian uprising in various projects. She continues this from Berlin as part of the management team of Adopt a Revolution, a German-Syrian human rights initiative. Besides political stuff & occasional forays into the independent theater scene, she can be found hanging out on the climbing wall or in the pub.
Philipp is committed to human rights, freedom of movement and climate justice. Was active for many years as action trainer in social movements. Gives workshops on creative forms of action and works as a project coordinator for associations, initiatives and organizations. He is convinced that an active civil society is the pathbreaker to a more just future. In his free time he likes to lose the ground under his feet and fight against gravity.
Eva started her activism in political education work and in the fight for freedom of movement and safe passage. Professionally, she supports activists who are new to Germany to get involved in politics and civil society.
Ruben has had his own experiences with repression as a journalist in crisis and conflict regions, and has the greatest respect for activists who sometimes risk everything to stand up for others. In 2015 he co-founded Sea-Watch, in 2021 Kabul Luftbrücke, his academic degree is Master of Disaster.
Florian has been an activist primarily in the environmental movement since 2001. Over the years he has gone through different positions and countries, always with an eye on people power, non-violent actions and campaigns by civil society actors. He is very concerned about shrinking civic spaces and besides cherishing good teamwork, he has a real soft spot for all things Asian and "being outdoors".
