Renovabis e.V.

Renovabis is the solidarity action of the German Catholics with the people in Central and Eastern Europe. In March 1993, Renovabis was founded by the German Bishops' Conference at the suggestion of the Central Committee of German Catholics. It is the youngest of the 6 universal Catholic aid organizations in Germany: Misereor, Adveniat, Renovabis, Missio, Caritas International, and the children's mission organization "Die Sternsinger".

The name comes from Psalm 104, 30: "If you send out your spirit, they will all be created, and you will renew the face of the earth." Emit spiritum tuum, et creabuntur, et renovabis faciem terrae.
