Stiftung Start Again appears to be part of the Gemeinnützige Hertie-Stiftung’s broader portfolio, with a strong emphasis on research, democracy, and social participation in Germany. It funds both structured programs and project grants in areas like clinical neuroscience, multiple sclerosis support, Jewish history and remembrance culture, antisemitism prevention, and civic education. The foundation often backs model projects and partner-led initiatives that can be tested, transferred, and scaled rather than one-off charitable activity.
Mix of invite-only and program-based grantmaking, with some annual calls and other projects accepted on a rolling basis through formal funding guidelines. Grants tend to support pilot, transfer, and model projects, fellowships, and capacity-building initiatives, often in Germany and sometimes through select international partnerships.

Check whether the opportunity is a named program, since some lines are invitation-only and others have annual calls or rolling submissions. Strong applications should clearly show model character, transfer potential, and a fit with Hertie’s themes of brain research, democracy, remembrance culture, or antisemitism prevention; Germany-based implementation is usually preferred.
