Here are some of the people who provide the Constantin Hering Foundation with special support through their sponsorship, assistance, guidance and advice.
Professional expertise
- Originally trained as a Media Designer, degree completed in 1995

- Corporate Health Manager since 2023 at a waste management company, where I have also been working in organization, quality management, and occupational safety since 2019
Tasks within the Constantin Hering Foundation
I contribute my commitment as project lead for the newsletter. As an important communication channel of the Constantin Hering Foundation (Constantin Hering Stiftung - CHS), the newsletter serves to provide information, networking, and transparency for homeopaths, interested individuals, supporters, and partners.
It is important to me to advance this project with energy and patience, in order to connect a strong community that jointly pursues the CHS’s goals for homeopathy.
Vision for the Foundation
My wish is for a world in which homeopathy is an integral part of a modern and human-centered medicine.
The CHS seeks to promote this on a scientific basis and within an interdisciplinary model.
An essential part of this vision is the connection between the various groups within the community of homeopathic practitioners.
In a strong community, we experience how positive encounters foster connection and growth.
The CHS brings together people from different professional backgrounds into a vibrant movement that shares knowledge, experience, and humanity.
A training in homeopathy based on unified quality standards builds trust, strengthens competence, and provides orientation for newcomers on their way into practice.
The CHS stands for this quality and for a sustainable, future-oriented homeopathic community in the 21st century.

Tasks in the Constantin Hering Foundation
As a homeopath and Heilpraktiker, quality and care in working with my patients are not only important to me but represent the essential foundation of any therapeutic practice. Scientifically grounded methods and a reflective, evidence-based approach are therefore central elements of my work.
Within the Constantin Hering Foundation, I experience a strong commitment to establishing homeopathy as an integral part of modern medicine in theory, practice, and research—supported by experts with diverse areas of competence. I find this orientation both essential and inspiring, as it provides a valuable foundation for current and future homeopaths and researchers, and thus contributes to the continued development of homeopathy.
For this reason, I am very pleased to contribute my knowledge and skills to the work of the Constantin Hering Foundation:
- Support of the website project in the areas of:
-
Development
-
Project controlling
-
Content management
-
Quality management
-
Editing & translation
-
- Ongoing maintenance of the website
- Technical and conceptual support to ensure efficient collaboration among the foundation’s stakeholders.
Vision for the foundation
The Constantin Hering Foundation creates the basis for a collegial network that benefits from a wide range of training programmes and works together to further develop the quality of treatment and the professional application of homeopathy. Committed specialists come together, develop practical concepts and promote the continuous improvement of homeopathic care through dialogue.
Politicians, journalists and interested patients find CHS a competent point of contact for well-founded information on homeopathy. The foundation strengthens the public perception of homeopathy, supports the qualification of practitioners and thus patient safety, and is committed to its preservation as a special type of therapy. With a broad network and professional public relations work CHS positions itself as a strong voice in the homeopathic discourse and offers a well-founded counterpoint to critical campaigns. The CHS is recognised as a driving force.
The CHS is available throughout Germany - and internationally - as a competent point of contact when homeopathic topics need to be represented. With its extensive specialist library and expertise, it can also support external initiatives such as associations, support organisations, libraries and museums. Students of homeopathy will find valuable specialist literature, support for their dissertations and, if necessary, mentors. The CHS promotes scientific work and offers an important resource for all those involved in complementary medicine or qualified training in the field of homeopathy.
Homeopathy schools and degree programs can orientate themselves on the quality standards of the CHS in order to improve their training concepts. In this way, well-founded and up-to-date training programmes can be created again.
Many homeopaths support the work of the foundation - financially as well as with their expertise and commitment.

Vision for the foundation
My vision of the foundation is the image of a "multi-generational house" of the Paradigm Shift family - a paradigm shift in the thinking of homeopaths as a large house inscription.
The ground floor includes the basic training for beginners - basically the nursery, kindergarten, and primary school for everyone = education.
On the first floor, the advanced students learn = further training. And there is the kitchen where people meet to discuss = discussion room.
The study room = library on the upper floor.
Anyone can visit this house, regardless of their orientation, and can learn, study, ask questions and discuss.
For me, the foundation can and should be this building.
