The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH has been operating in Armenia since the early 1990’s and opened its Country Office in Yerevan in 2002.
GIZ Armenia, as a longstanding partner of the government of Armenia, is a strong implementing organization working on behalf of the German Government towards providing quality and results-driven integrated solutions for global challenges in the field of international cooperation for sustainable development.
With the aim to contribute to a more democratic, inclusive, green, and prospering Armenia worth living in, we work with a focus on three core areas: 1. Sustainable Economic Development, Training, and Employment, 2. Peaceful and Inclusive Societies, and 3. Climate and Energy – Just Transition.
Having the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) as the main commissioning party, the EU and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) as co-financing donors, all our programs and projects contribute to the United Nations’ Agenda 2030, its Sustainable Development Goals, and are driven by the principles of gender equality, diversity, sustainability, and inclusion.
