About this program
COWOKI is a unique coworking space in Cologne, Germany, that combines professional workspaces with on-site childcare under one roof. The name represents "Care + Community = Caremunity" - the heart of their innovative concept that enables true work-life integration for parents and families. Founded in 2017 by Peggy Wahrlich, COWOKI began as a coworking space specifically designed for parents and has evolved into a vibrant hub welcoming people at all life stages: students, founders, freelancers, employees, seniors, and families. Located in Cologne's creative Belgisches Viertel (Belgian Quarter), directly across from the Stadtgarten park, the space offers over 50 workstations across multiple floors. What sets COWOKI apart is its genuine focus on community and psychological safety. Beyond just renting workspace, members become part of a supportive network where many have developed lasting friendships and business partnerships over the years.
