Deutschlands Agenda
-------------------

The [German](/wiki/Germany "Germany")\-language [blog](/wiki/Blog "Blog") Deutschlands Agenda is the most recent project of the [Atlantic Initiative](/wiki/Atlantic_Initiative "Atlantic Initiative"), launched in November 2011\. Like atlantic\-community.org, this platform concentrates on foreign policy; however, it especially aims to raise awareness as well as strengthen the debate on [German foreign policy](/wiki/Foreign_relations_of_Germany "Foreign relations of Germany") issues. In an ever more connected world, foreign policy factors have to be taken into account while making national policy decisions. By explaining these interactions as well as initiating a discussion on the topic between citizens, politicians and opinion leaders, Deutschlands Agenda looks to accustom citizens to the global context of decisions. By appealing especially to the younger generation and the [blogging](/wiki/Blog "Blog") community, it not only wishes to deepen [citizen participation](/wiki/Participation_%28decision_making%29 "Participation (decision making)"), but also to actively and sustainably frame the German political dialogue and to eventually create a strong strategic community in Germany. Like atlantic\-community.org, Deutschlands Agenda will condense fruitful discussions into executive briefings (Memos) and send them for consideration to key decision makers.
