2013: A Year of Connection, Collaboration & Growth
In 2013, senior expert organisations from around the world gathered in Bonn, Germany for a major international conference, hosted with support from the German Ministry for Development Cooperation. Among them was CESES, representing its growing European network.
The event was more than a global meeting of minds — it marked an important step in CESES’ efforts to expand its membership and reach.
Faced with a changing development landscape from the previous years, CESES sought to strengthen its position by welcoming new voices and building a broader coalition of senior expert organisations across Europe.
The Bonn conference created space for genuine dialogue with potential partners and reinforced shared values around volunteering, knowledge exchange, and international cooperation. For CESES, it was a moment of looking outward with intention — not only reflecting on its past, but also actively shaping the path ahead.
