About

Axel Anders, M. A., studied psychology, drama, linguistics and business administration in France and Germany. During his university years, he became involved in the organic farming movement and came into contact with the organic pioneer Adolf Hoops in the early 1980s. Although his professional journey took him in a different direction in language teaching, international business and publishing, his interest in organic farming remained alive. In 2016, when recognising the need for a consistently vegan form of organic agriculture, he connected German stakeholders in veganic farming with the Biocyclic Network in Greece/Cyprus, thereby initiating the development of “Biocyclic Vegan Agriculture”. Currently, Axel Anders lives and works in Berlin. As a co-founder and member of the executive committee of the Adolf Hoops Society, the international umbrella organisation for biocyclic vegan agriculture, he is primarily involved in the global development of biocyclic vegan activities. He is also a board member of the German association Förderkreis Biozyklisch-Veganer Anbau e. V. and a trustee at the UK organisation Stockfree Farming.
