Prof. Dr. Jobst Fiedler, Hertie School of Governance - HSE Young Expert’s Workshop, Moscow, May 23-26, 2015 The non-profit sector has a strong role in service delivery in the welfare field in Germany 2 Welfare activities are the largest part of non-profit sector in Germany. Their share in welfare is increasing since the state is in the process of reducing its activities by public employees and just remains the main funding source. There are four big players:  Caritas: Catholic church  Diakonisches Werk: Protestant churches  Red Cross  Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband: The head organisation for several hundreds of smaller welfare organisations In addition, a growing number of smaller non-profits have developed on the local and grassroots level. Altogether, the non-profits in the welfare sector cover a vast portfolio of activities in fields like: Childcare, Elderly Care, Integration Programs for Refugees, People with Disabilities, Unemployed Persons as well as Health Care or Educational Institutions.

Prof. Dr. Jobst Fiedler, Hertie School of Governance - HSE Young Expert’s Workshop, Moscow, May 23-26, 2015 In this field, non-profits have been growing even faster than in the service delivery field Traditional players in this field are:  The publicly co-financed foundations of political parties represented in the German Parliament;  Some large foundations like Bosch or Krupp Foundation existing already for several decades; But many new players have entered the field. The number of foundations which – apart from cultural and social activities – are supporting research studies and subsequent policy proposals for national or international issues has strongly increased. By now we have at least six large new players active in this field. 3 Non-profits are as well engaged in advocacy and producing policy proposals (1)

Prof. Dr. Jobst Fiedler, Hertie School of Governance - HSE Young Expert’s Workshop, Moscow, May 23-26, 2015 The same is true for non-profit think tanks which are either supported by foundations or other donors or public financing. They have a increasingly important role in agenda setting and organizing public debate. The number of grassroots advocacy groups – temporary and sometimes loosely organized, sometimes as stable non-profits, has flourished during the last ten years. They cover a broad spectrum of issues ranging from educational and social issues to challenging public planning in the fields of infrastructure, traffic or city development. 4 Non-profits are as well engaged in advocacy and producing policy proposals (2)

Prof. Dr. Jobst Fiedler, Hertie School of Governance - HSE Young Expert’s Workshop, Moscow, May 23-26, 2015 Large Welfare Organisations Professionalization of management level in terms of mission orientation, leadership style, results tracking and controlling as well as marketing and fundraising. Substantial consultancy support to introduce these private sector inspired management concepts. More consistent internal performance management because of tighter public budgets financing most of the activities. Performance contracts with the public funders – but still not widespread. New role in agenda-setting and advocacy professionalized. 5 Innovations in the non-profit sector
