The Amadeu Antonio Foundation, established in 1998, is a German foundation engaging against far-right-wing parties, racism and antisemitism (including anti-Zionism).[1][2] It was founded by Karl Konrad Graf von der Groeben, with author Anetta Kahane appointed as its chairwoman and Wolfgang Thierse, the former president of the Bundestag, named as its patron.

The Foundation is named after Amadeu Antonio Kiowa, one of the first victims of far-right violence after the reunification of Germany in 1990.[3]
