My parents named me Eberhard, but abroad my name is Peter, this is much easier. A long time ago I did my Master in Economics and Sociology from University of Cologne. Currently I am the Managing Director of CEFE International. Some of you may compare me with one of the big Greek thinkers: nevertheless, I am well known for development in experiential learning and moderation approaches.
In my professional life in development cooperation of over 35 years, I have carried out more than 280 short term missions to 76 countries. I have been a passionate entrepreneur myself since 1988.
I am in love with entrepreneurship and fully engaged with the development of online tools for private sector promotion.

Why am I at CEFE International?
Because my work here makes sense and it brings me joy!
What am I doing when I'm not at work?
Professionally: a lot abroad. Private: handicrafts, family life, meeting friends, sleeping.
If I could, I would...
Drive with my own car to Thailand, kite flying, watch the life story of my grandchildren.
The most fascinating country I have been to...
The whole planet! But if I have to pick one: Myanmar
