Csenge is Head of Events and Culture at European Alternatives Berlin, where they curate and organize the Summer School, Winter Academy, and other translocal gatherings that bring together activists, educators, and artists for collective learning, reflection, and action. They are a cultural organizer and activist committed to building transnational, intersectional networks of solidarity across movements. Csenge also contributes to the SCHOOL OF POLITICAL HOPE, supporting the creation of spaces for political imagination and shared struggle.

They studied theatre in Cluj, Romania, where they were active in the local housing movement with Social Housing Now and the European Action Coalition, fighting against gentrification and displacement, and for the right to housing and the city. These experiences continue to shape their dedication to the intersections of art, education, and political struggle. Csenge believes that care, trust, and creativity are essential tools for resisting alienation and xenophobia, and for building more just and livable futures.
