Therefore, in order to steam community cohesion, which will ensure stability and peace in Europe, CGE Erfurt e.V. has developed “Community Goes Europe 2: Building Solidarity Across the Nations”, a volunteering project within the Erasmus+ program.

- Fostering resilience among young people with fewer opportunities and equipping them with the skills and competences needed for the labor market;
- Encouraging young people to volunteer in developing countries and after return home to work on development issues in their own communities;
- Providing access to places where young people can develop their creativity and interests, such as community centres;
- Improving volunteer management on European level and preparing participating organisations for European Solidarity Corps.
