Framework Agreement - diversity trainings for managers and staff

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ) is a globally active company that supports the German Federal Government in achieving its goals of international cooperation for sustainable development and has been implementing projects and programmes worldwide in various thematic areas for many decades. This is done primarily on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), but also for other federal ministries or the European Commission. In addition, GIZ also works for international development agencies, financing institutions and governments of partner countries. Currently, more than 20,000 staff members are working on approximately 2,000 projects in about 120 countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Europe from the headquarters in Bonn and Eschborn as well as from more than 90 GIZ country offices in the partner countries. The Academy for International Cooperation (Academy, AIZ) is GIZ's in-house academy. It makes an important contribution to personnel development in international cooperation. As a centre of excellence for competence development, it prepares GIZ employees and managers, partners in projects and external customers to shape their own working environment and to overcome complex challenges. Joint learning and networking as well as the interactive and learner-oriented design of real and virtual learning settings are characteristic of the entire portfolio of the Academy.
