The International Bonhoeffer Society is made up of individual language sections around the world. While there are no formal structures connecting the English Language Section with other sections, relationships among sections have been vital since the start of the society. Relationships have been nurtured at International Congresses and other conferences, during sabbaticals spent abroad, and while working cooperatively on large projects like the DBW/DBWE translation project.
Likewise, Congresses and other events – in South Africa, Britain, Australia, and elsewhere – have built connections and friendships, and these have been drawn upon to do cooperative work. The most important such planning groups are the ad hoc international committees which have worked with local leaders to plan the quadrennial Congresses.
While the English Language Section is the most international in its membership, spanning the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Scotland, and England, there are also strong Sections of the Society in Germany, Brazil, Japan, China, and the Netherlands.
