On 24 April Dr Axel Berger joined Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul, former Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and Wolfram Stierle, head of the staff unit „Dialogue on Value-Oriented Development Policy“ at the BMZ, to discuss how politics and civil society can contribute to the design of sustainable cooperation formats and, in particular, how they can cooperate with regions characterised by weak statehood beyond the economic level.
