What Metta Center for Nonviolence does

Changemaker Communications is a Berlin-based sole proprietorship communications consultancy operated by founder Alina Wagner, providing PR empowerment services to changemakers, founders, social entrepreneurs, NGOs, and thought leaders. The company's core offering is structured as a three-tier service portfolio: group-based workshops under the Voices of Change Academy (including the 10-week PR Empowerment Camp, the 3-week Texten leicht gemacht writing workshop, and the Diversity-Sensibler Content session), tailored 1:1 PR consulting engagements, and a full-service PR Creation package that handles end-to-end campaign execution for clients who prefer outsourcing.

The business is purely service-based with no proprietary technology platform; the operational stack comprises Wix for website hosting, Zoom for workshop delivery, email for client intake and communication, and standard marketing integrations (Google Analytics, Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, LinkedIn Insights Tag). Customer acquisition follows a community-led, three-step process (email inquiry, 20-minute discovery call, tailored collaboration), supported by organic content marketing on the website, Instagram, and LinkedIn, plus paid retargeting. All pricing is custom and quote-based; no public tiers or price points are disclosed.

The business is bootstrapped and self-funded with no institutional investment, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. It is domiciled in Berlin (Bessemerstraße 82, 12103 Berlin, Germany) and operates under German sole-proprietorship law. The founder is also involved in two mission-aligned projects, ConnectEd Beyond Bias and The ConnectEd, which are not subsidiaries but related social-impact initiatives sharing the founder's brand identity. The firm serves a globally distributed SMB and individual client base despite its Berlin headquarters, with workshop delivery decoupled from geography through online Zoom sessions.
