Foundation for the Rights of Future Generations (FRFG), also known as Stiftung für die Rechte zukünftiger Generationen (SRzG), is a German think tank and activist group focused on intergenerational justice and sustainability.

[6] In 2006, political scientist Martin Thunert characterized the FRFG as an activist "mini-tank" running on a shoestring budget compared to state-funded think tanks and academically oriented institutes in Germany.

[6] FRFG has since stated that it "rejects notions of generational war, has a culture of discussion and dialogue, and focuses on learning about intergenerational issues and change.

"[1] Tremmel himself presented the foundation's position paper on pensions to Walter Riester, the German Federal Minister for Labor and Social Affairs.

[10] One of the early successes of the SRzG was its annual youth congress, gathering young people to discuss political issues in working groups and develop resolutions.

[11] Its first international conference took place from August 6 to 12, 2000, inviting 400 young people between the ages of 18 and 30 to the First European Youth Congress in Hanover, Germany, during Expo 2000.

[6] In the early years, the organization instigated a high-profile campaign to enshrine the principles of sustainability and protection of future generations in the German constitution.

[12] Members of the CDU, SPD, Greens, and FDP in the German Bundestag drew up a cross-party motion to anchor intergenerational justice in the Basic Law, and presented it on July 14, 2006.

[13] The Foundation for the Rights of Future Generations helped to moderate their meetings and supported their deliberations with comments from prominent constitutional lawyers.

The walkshops (a combination of the terms walk and workshop) of the FRFG are an innovative auditory learning method aimed at informing and empowering young people.

The concept draws on Aristotle, whose school of the Peripatetics linked mental mobility with physical movement and transfers this approach to the current century.

A worldwide day of action has been proclaimed by an international network of non-partisan organisations that exist to protect the rights of younger and future generations.

Accelerating global warming, escalating (nuclear) arms races, the loss of biodiversity, unaligned artificial intelligence, and human-made pandemics are just some of the new risks experienced by today's youth and future generations that lack adequate government intervention.
