"Deutsch für Dich" is the community of the Goethe-Institut, which addresses German learners and German teachers. Users can present themselves in a personal profile, network with other participants, and exchange messages via the platform. In addition, they receive free access to learning and practice materials, which are available for different levels of speech. The Goethe-Institut chose CONTENS CMS and CONTENS relate as a basis for the implementation of the community.
