Our goals

Our mission – why do we exist?

A Frisian future in Europe.

Our vision – where do we want to go?

We want the recognition of the Frisians in East Frisia in accordance with the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities to be lived and implemented in practice. We want this not only linguistically and culturally, but also politically and administratively.

Our values ​​- what do we believe in?

  • “Frisian” is not a regional culture in Germany and the Netherlands, but an independent culture in Europe.
  • “A Frisian is whoever wants to be a Frisian” – This confession must neither be examined nor questioned.
  • “To be a Frisian” is not compatible with left-wing or right-wing extremism.

Our goals – what are we committed to?

  • To connect Frisians in all Frisian countries with each other and to promote inter-Frisian cooperation.
  • To achieve cultural self-determination for East Frisia.
  • Preservation, documentation and ausbau of the East Frisian Platt and Sater Frisian.
  • Recognition of East Frisian Platt as an independent contact language separate from Low Saxon/Low German.
  • Conveying the Frisian culture.
