Green Chancellor candidate Annalena Baerbock has again specified information about her person on her website.
These are incorrect statements about membership in organizations.
On Thursday she had listed the transatlantic foundation German Marshall Fund and the UN refugee agency UNHCR.
In the meantime the page has been changed, instead of “Memberships” the heading is now “Advisory boards, (sponsorship) memberships, regular support”.
This now includes a funding program from the German Marshall Fund and UN refugee aid as a German partner of the UNHCR.
The Heinrich Böll Foundation's Europe / Transatlantic Advisory Board, which was also previously listed, now notes that Baerbock has since resigned.
The changes were first made public by a »FAZ« journalist.
A party spokesman announced on Saturday that Baerbock had completed the Marshall Fund's 2011 fellowship program.
She has been making regular donations to UN refugee aid since 2013.
"This has now been made more precise by adding categories." The "Welt am Sonntag" has already reported on the speaker's statement.
Details on the course have also been revised
In the information on her education, Baerbock now expressly points out that she only finished her studies in political science at the University of Hamburg with an intermediate diploma.
Previously, she had only mentioned the period of study from 2000 to 2004, without going into the degree.
There she studied public law as a minor.

According to the unchanged information on her website, she later obtained a "Master of Laws" degree from the renowned London School of Economics;
she has not completed a doctorate in international law.
In May it became known that Baerbock had reported special payments of more than 25,000 euros to the Bundestag administration, which she had received from her party in previous years as federal chairwoman.
A Green spokeswoman later stated that Baerbock duly reports and taxed these special payments to the tax office.
