MATRIFORUM FOUNDATION

It’s almost time!

MATRIFORUM FOUNDATION

For a Future in Balance

In 2019 we founded MatriForum as a partnership. Now it’s time to take the next step... a big step.

We’re in the process of setting up the MATRIFORUM FOUNDATION

Are you ready?

The MatriForum Foundation is dedicated to promoting and spreading matriarchal values.
We’re committed to raising awareness about modern matriarchal research and to sharing knowledge about egalitarian societies.

We create spaces for connection, the exchange of knowledge and research.
Together we develop innovative ways to live, work and take decisions for a better future.

The transformation of MatriForum into a non-profit foundation marks a significant milestone in our journey. This step allows us to create a haven that ensures stability, reliability and long-term growth. Our structure as a foundation guarantees that our work in education, research and hands-on experience will continue sustainably and for the long term.

The aim of this new structure is to provide stability through continuity, ensuring that our efforts in education, experience and research will thrive for years to come.

We're committed to raising awareness about modern matriarchal research and to sharing knowledge about egalitarian societies.

A knowledge of matriarchal societies can guide us, individually and collectively, towards a peaceful future; a future that’s within our reach.

As a foundation, we create broad spaces and structures where connections can flourish and knowledge about matriarchal societies can be exchanged.

But our work goes beyond the mere dissemination of knowledge: we actively encourage the application of matriarchal principles and the exploration of ways of living and working that integrate these values into everyday life.

We aim to continue the advancement of modern matriarchal research and explore egalitarian, forward-thinking approaches to living together.

This part of our Foundation has a medium- to long-term focus, which is incredibly important to us. Our commitment will be translated into tangible scientific research projects, including collaborations.

The urgency to explore new and fairer ways of life drives us to secure the necessary resources and to build partnerships.
