Cusanus Hochschule

About

Hochschule für Gesellschaftsgestaltung (HfGG, formerly "Cusanus Hochschule") is a private non-profit university situated in Koblenz, a city in Germany at Moselle and Rhine. A core of the HfGG is social criticism and criticism of the current economic system. In doing so, the HfGG aims at a reform of economic and sociological aspects without naming a common political philosophy basis. While officially recognised in May 2015 as one of nine universities in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate, it was founded in February 2014 by a group of academics, students and citizens. One of the institutions involved in the founding of Cusanus Hochschule has been the Kues Academy for the History of European Thought (Kueser Akademie für Europaeische Geistesgeschichte). Hochschule für Gesellschaftsgestaltung remains independent of economic, political and religious interests. Hence, it is not affiliated with any religious denomination.
