Zentrum für gesellschaftlichen Fortschritt

ZGF
Frankfurt am Main, Germany

The Center for Social Progress is developing new ways and methods with which the quality of life of people in Germany can be improved. They are a visible initiator and bridge-builder between disciplines, institutions and people. Their progress index provides a measure of quality of life beyond gross domestic product. With their progress studies, they provide well-founded and clearly understandable analysis on relevant future and cross-cutting issues such as work, education and health. Their nationwide series of events, Progress Factory, combines content-related work with dialogue and networking. They make their products available to the general public free of charge and without support from taxpayers' money.
