Mission & Vision
The International Gardeners Exchange Foundation is committed to promoting vocational training and international understanding in the field of garden botany. Our goal is to deepen the exchange of horticultural knowledge and foster intercultural friendships between botanical gardens through financial support for overseas travel.
Target groups
Gardeners of all specializations from German botanical gardens who, together with their supervisors, plan a professional trip to a foreign partner institution are eligible for funding. In addition, employees from foreign botanical gardens may also be supported, provided they travel in cooperation with a German partner institution.
