About us

The Saatkultur project is based on the voluntary commitment of a multidisciplinary international team from the fields of journalism and design. Jutta Nachtwey developed the concept and organized the execution, thanks to the kind support of numerous contributors. Our team was shortlisted in the top ten for the Social Design Award 2023 organised by DER SPIEGEL, in cooperation with BAUHAUS.
