Andrea Fischer (born 14 January 1960) is a former member of the German Bundestag for the German Green Party and from 1998 until 2001 was Federal Minister for Health. She dropped out of the Bundestag in 2002.

LifeEdit

Education and professionEdit

After graduating from high school, Andrea Fischer completed an apprenticeship as an offset printer.<ref>[1]</ref> She then worked as a printer and proofreader and additionally completed her studies in economics at the Free University of Berlin. After completing her studies, she worked as a research assistant at the European Parliament, the WZB Berlin Social Science Center and the Federal Insurance Institution for Employees (Bundesversicherungsanstalt für Angestellte).

Political careerEdit

She has been a member of the German Green Party since 1985, before that she was a member of the Group of International Marxists (GIM), the then German section of the Fourth International. From 1994 to 2002 she was a member of the German Bundestag. After the 1998 federal elections, she was appointed Federal Minister of Health on 27 October 1998, as a member of the federal government headed by Gerhard Schröder. She resigned from office on 9 January 2001 in the wake of the BSE crisis. Shortly afterwards, the resignation of the Federal Minister of Agriculture, Karl-Heinz Funke, was also announced. In the film Schlachtfeld Politik – Die finstere Seite der Macht (Battlefield Politics – The dark side of power) by Stephan Lamby, she describes that there was massive pressure from the party leadership. The film asks whether Andrea Fischer had to resign after Joschka Fischer's wild years (Der Spiegel edition 2/2001), not so much because of the BSE crisis as to relieve Joschka Fischer.<ref>Schlachtfeld Politik, youtube.com</ref>

Fischer was elected as the leading Alliance 90/The Greens candidate in the Berlin election on 18 September 2011, in the district assembly (Bezirksverordnetenversammlung) of Berlin's Mitte borough, where she was chair of the Alliance 90/The Greens parliamentary group until 30 October 2012.<ref>Berliner Woche: Andrea Fischer zur Regionsrätin in Hannover gewählt Template:Webarchive, 2 October 2012.</ref>

On 15 October 2012 Fischer was elected by the Regional Assembly to the office of Finance Director of the Hanover Region, which had been restructured by Regional President Hauke Jagau.<ref>Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung CDU-Frau Thiel muss gehen, vom September 26, 2014</ref> It manages the areas of finance, facility management and hospitals.

Pressemitteilung des BPE vom 19 January 2009 Template:Webarchive (PDF; 84 kB)</ref> From 2004 to 2006 Fischer was a member of the management team of the consulting firm Institut für Organisationskommunikation (IFOK GmbH), where she was responsible for health and nutrition. Previously, she was head of the Center of Canadian Universities (CUC) in Berlin.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
