Maghreb and Middle East

Map Maghreb und Middle East. © GTZ 2004.

GTZ is active in 17 countries in the Mediterranean and Middle East region, where it currently employs 188 seconded and 549 national staff members to support its local partners.

Apart from the Federal Development Ministry (BMZ), GTZ is increasingly operating in the region on behalf of other federal ministries – the Federal Foreign Office in the Palestinian territories in the education sector, for instance. On behalf of the Federal Ministry for the Environment it is working in Jordan to help improve the energy efficiency of the country’s water pumping stations. More and more often GTZ is supporting twinning arrangements between EU and partner administrations: in Egypt and Morocco in the spheres of traffic safety, solid waste management, consumer protection and export control. GTZ is helping implement a growing number of public-private partnerships (PPPs) for development in Jordan and Morocco – where water supply and the energy efficiency of the water sector, as well as the environment, climate change and sustainable economic development, are high on the agenda. Overall, the strengthening of regional integration and transboundary economic areas is also becoming more important for international cooperation in the region.

(As of 31 December 2008).
