GIZ staff work in thematically diverse projects and programmes in widely different countries throughout the world. What do they all have in common? A shared goal – to develop sustainable and effective solutions.
In GIZ’s short film, we accompany four employees through one day in their working lives and see what impact they have on the people in our partner countries.
GIZ's work produces many stories of success. Whether in Afghanistan, Rwanda or Colombia, the protagonists of these success stories are the local people. They are all passionate people who are taking their future into their own hands and helping improve the lives of many others. In this section we present some of these faces and stories from around the world in brief, memorable and moving portraits.
