Moving Education Forward.

CGE Erfurt e.V. is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in Erfurt, founded in 2005 and run by migrant-background professionals. Within the framework of non-formal education, CGE empowers participants and communities as active agents in their learning journey. 

 

For CGE, Non-Formal Education is centred on the following principles:

  • voluntary participation
  • holistic approach
  • facilitating a non-competitive environment
  • learning through experience
  • active participation 
  • placing the group as a source of learning 
  • learner-centered & values-based education
