About the project

What it is about

Autismus Wissen – “Weil Verständnis mit Wissen beginnt” (“Because understanding begins with knowledge”). It is a German-language knowledge and orientation platform exclusively on the topic of autism. It is aimed at people on the autism spectrum, at families and relatives and at professionals.

The website is free of charge and needs no user account.

Who is behind it

Autismus Wissen is an independent project of Willi Kühn-Dehmlow. The full details are in the legal notice (Impressum, in German).

Content is created step by step

The website grows gradually. An article only appears once its statements and sources have been checked. Whether an article has also been reviewed by a qualified professional is stated with each article. How we work is explained on the page How we work.
