Stephanie Aeffner (29 April 1976 – 15 January 2025) was a German politician from Alliance 90/The Greens who served as a Member of the German Bundestag from 2021 until her death.

Early life

Aeffner hails from Frankfurt. After graduating from Friedrich-Dessauer-Gymnasium in Frankfurt am Main in 1995, Aeffner began studying human medicine but had to drop out after four years for health reasons. Aeffner was dependent on a wheelchair from 1999.

Medical career

In 2000, Aeffner began studying social pedagogy at the Heidelberg University of Applied Sciences, which she completed in 2006 as a qualified social worker. After working as a temporary worker in outpatient nursing, she worked from 2006 to 2009 as a quality manager in the Clinic for Surgery at the University Hospital Mannheim. In 2010, she trained as a quality officer/quality manager in the social and healthcare sector at Rhein-Main-Neckar GmbH, Academy for Economic and Social Management. Until 2012, Aeffner worked in the ‘Integration Project Group’ in the town of Eppelheim. Since 2012, she was involved in the ‘LAG Behindertenpolitik in Baden-Württemberg’. From May 2012, she worked for the ‘Zentrum selbstbestimmt Leben Stuttgart e.V.’, an advice centre for people with disabilities. There she provided counselling for people with disabilities and their relatives. She was also responsible for the development and implementation of inclusion projects, for which she was involved in various city and state committees such as the Stuttgart Inclusion Advisory Board. From 2016 to 2021, Aeffner was the representative of the state government of Baden-Württemberg for the interests of people with disabilities (State Disability Commissioner).

Political career

Aeffner was a long-standing member of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen. She was a member of the local executive committee of the Eppelheim Green Party and the executive committee of the Kurpfalz-Hardt district organisation. She was also a member of the state executive committee of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen Baden-Württemberg.When she was appointed state commissioner for the disabled, she resigned from all party-political offices for reasons of neutrality. She was involved in several state working groups of the Greens in Baden-Württemberg (LAG Economy, Finance and Social Affairs, LAG Disability Policy, LAG Education) and the Federal Working Group (BAG) Disability Policy. She was also a member of the specialist working group on the state election programme and the 2021 Green-Black coalition agreement in Baden-Württemberg.

In the 2021 German federal election, Aeffner contested Pforzheim. She received 12.7% of the first votes and came in fourth place, but was elected to the Bundestag on the state list. In the negotiations to form a so-called traffic light coalition of the Social Democratic Party (SPD), the Green Party and the Free Democratic Party (FDP), she was part of her party's delegation in the working group on social policy, co-chaired by Dagmar Schmidt, Sven Lehmann and Johannes Vogel.

In parliament, Aeffner had since been serving on the Committee on Labour and Social Affairs and the Parliamentary Advisory Board on Sustainable Development and is the rapporteur for her group.

Political positions

On 3 June 2022, she was one of four members of the Green parliamentary group in the German Bundestag to vote against the Bundeswehr special fund.

Personal life and death

Aeffner was a protestant and, by her own account, single. She lived in Eppelheim. Aeffner died on 15 January 2025, at the age of 48.
