Kay Wegner passed away on 7 August 2025 at the age of 52 following a serious illness.
Kay served as the First Chairman of the BAG Board for several years and played a decisive role in shaping the early years of BAG Täterarbeit, as well as the development of our standards for working with perpetrators in cases of domestic violence.
For over 23 years, Kay shaped the perpetrator work at pro familia Schleswig-Holstein, where he served as a divisional manager for many years before moving to the Ministry of Justice and Health of the State of Schleswig-Holstein as a policy officer in 2023.
We thank Kay for his immense commitment to the professionalisation of perpetrator work in domestic violence in Germany. With his high level of professional expertise, his curiosity, and his great interpersonal intuition, he contributed significantly to the development of perpetrator work.
Above all, we were deeply impressed by his persistence, his interest, his great professional competence, and his creativity.
His subtle sense of humour will remain in our hearts.
We mourn the loss of Kay.
Berlin, August 2025
