Tender Results of German Society For International Cooperation Giz Gmbh

Education is one of the key drivers for economic development in Egypt. Especially, sound Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) contributes to the provision of skilled and qualified workers to the labour market. Therefore, a comprehensive TVET system has a positive impact on economic growth and the productivity of enterprises. Emphasizing this importance of TVET, Article 20 of the Egyptian Constitution of 2014 stipulates: "The state commits to encourage and develop technical education and professional training and expands all types thereof in accordance with the international quality standards and in line with the needs of the labour market." Considering the above, the Egyptian Ministry of Education and Technical Education (MoETE) in cooperation with the stakeholders has formulated Technical Education reform project (TE 2.0) aiming at transforming the TVET system to an inclusive and high-quality technical education with life-long learning opportunities in accordance with international quality standards. The Technical Education reform project focuses on the following pillars: quality assurance, curricula development, further education of vocational training staff, engagement of the private sector in TVET and improving the social perception of TVET. To achieve these goals, the Ministry seeks to establish Centers of Competence (CoCs), which have a sectoral focus, and which are aiming at developing their respective occupational sector. Within these CoCs the Ministry shall cooperate closely with a group of Private Sector Partners on these occupational sectors, in coordination with an entity that represents this sector. The project "Technical Support for the Comprehensive Technical Education Initiative" is supporting the MoETE in implementing the reform TE 2.0. It therefore aims at improving the systemic framework conditions for dual vocational education and training in accordance with the TE 2.0 reform. The project contributes to five outputs: 1. It lays the foundations for an independent quality assurance and accreditation system in technical education 2. It supports in advancing the systematic involvement of the private sector in technical education in selected sectors. 3. It aims at applyin new quality standards in the education and further training of TVET personnel. 4. It strengthens the effectiveness of the dual TVET governance structure at national and regional levels. 5. It supports in improving the conditions for accreditation in line with the new quality standards and guidelines at selected TVET schools. This tender primarily aims at implementing activities in output 2 and 3.

The "Strong Businesses and Communities for Moldova" project is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and co-funded by the European Union (EU) and the Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC). The project is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. Following the priorities of the Government of the Republic of Moldova and its citizens, as well as being in line with the European Neighbourhood Policy for the Eastern Neighbourhood countries, the project contributes to the implementation of the "EU4Moldova Local Communities" Programme (Action), which is part of the Annual Action Programme in favour of the Republic of Moldova for 2020. The implementation of this programme is also supported by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) and the Solidarity Fund PL (SFPL). The project aims "to improve the quality of life and to address the economic and social consequences of COVID-19 in selected local communities in the Republic of Moldova, thus contributing to their longer-term resilience" (overall objective, impact level). The "European Joint Development Cooperation Strategy for the Republic of Moldova" emphasises that living standards in rural areas remain a large problem. Overall, current economic growth patterns are neither quantitatively nor qualitatively sufficient to create enough and adequate jobs in all parts of the country. The target group for the project is the population in Moldovan communities, with a particular focus on women and vulnerable groups such as Roma and people with disabilities. The project approach is specially to strengthen capacities. Thereby, the focus is on the capacity development on the levels of individuals, organisations, and society.

Program´s overview: PazDiversa is a comprehensive program aimed at promoting sustainable and inclusive peace in Colombia by strengthening the capacity of state institutions and civil society organizations to implement specific gender measures from the peace agreement with an intersectional approach. The program started in February 2023 and has identified three key areas of action to achieve its objectives. Firstly, by bolstering the political participation of women and LGBTIQ+ individuals, the program seeks to promote their inclusion in decision-making processes related to the implementation of gender-specific measures in the Peace Agreement. Secondly, by transforming local socio-economic conditions, the program aims to empower the actors of civil society by providing them with the necessary skills and resources to participate in the implementation process with a focus on rural reform. Finally, by providing training to counter unequal power relations and discrimination, the program aims to enhance the capabilities of institutions and civil society organizations to address gender-specific challenges. The program recognizes the crucial role that an intersectional approach plays in achieving gender equality and reconfiguring power relations. PazDiversa aims to ensure that gender-specific measures are implemented in a manner that is sensitive to the different experiences of individuals and groups. This approach considers the multiple and intersecting identities and experiences that individuals may have, and how they shape their blossom in terms of access to resources and opportunities. The program is currently being implemented in Norte de Santander, Caquetá, Florencia, and Meta, with a coordination office in Bogotá. Moreover, the program incentivizes partnerships with the public and private sector to promote economic autonomy for women and LGBTQ+ social actors.

"Green private sector development and economic policy advice in Uzbekistan" The economic reforms implemented in Uzbekistan since the end of 2016 show a number of successes. Nevertheless, economic development lags far behind the country's own expectations of comprehensive and sustainable industrialisation. The share of the manufacturing sector in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is steadily declining, from 21.3 % (2015) to 19.7 % (2019). Although the manufacturing sector could generate large employment effects, the share of employment in manufacturing has fallen steadily over the past 15 years to 9 % and remains at this level. The Uzbek economy is thus unable to provide sufficiently good employment opportunities for the rapidly growing population. Women make up 44 % of the industrial workforce, but are mostly employed in low-wage sectors such as textile production. The government of Uzbekistan tries to promote industrial development with various initiatives such as industrial clusters, parks and zones. The Green Economy Strategy 2030 and the Industrial Development Strategy 2030 are core areas of the National Development Strategy 2022-2026, which places great emphasis on the industry as a driver of economic development and the introduction of green technologies to improve energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. Uzbekistan lacks strategic orientation and targeted promotion of industrial enterprises. The reason for this is the insufficient personnel and operational capacities of relevant public sector actors for industrial policy. There is a lack of capacity of vocational education and training institutions to provide necessary skilled labour as well as a lack of demand-driven Business Development Services (BDS) to increase the competitiveness and value addition of the industrial sector that could make a significant contribution to economic development. The project "Green private sector development and economic policy advice in Uzbekistan" (hereinafter the Project) is funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. The Project supports Uzbekistan in its efforts to promote green industrialisation and to thereby introduce energy- and resource-efficient production processes and create the conditions for a long-term decoupling of economic development and the use of natural resources. The Project consists of four interconnected outputs: Output 1 aims to strengthen the human and operational capacities of relevant public sector actors for industrial policy. Under this Output, the Project cooperates closely with relevant ministries and other state bodies. Output 2 aims to reinforce the private sector's technical capacities to implement more sustainable production in the industrial sector. Also, the Project plans to develop pilot concepts for the transformation of two industrial zones into Eco-Industrial Parks. Output 3 aims to promote demand-oriented Business Development Services to increase the competitiveness of companies in selected "future-oriented manufacturing sectors". The Output foresees piloting four support schemes to boost competitiveness and promote cooperation between industrial companies, research institutions, and universities. While the Project is open to working with companies of every size under this output, it is interested in particularly promoting Small and Medium Enterprises (SME). Output 4 aims to increase cooperation between European and Uzbek companies in the field of green industrialisation and to strengthen future-oriented sectors, which is expected to increase investments in these fields. The cooperation projects between European and Uzbek companies are initiated through the developPPP Service Centre. The Project is commissioned for three years (12/2022 - 12/2025) with a total budget of EUR 9 million.

The natural forests of Ivory Coast have almost disappeared over the last 60 years. While the area covered by forest had been 16.5 million hectares in 1960, only 3 million still existed in 2020. The economic development of Ivory Coast is primarily based on the agricultural expansion of cacao, rubber and palm oil plantations which led to the devastating loss of the Ivorian forest. The remaining three million hectares are distributed mainly between the two natural World Heritage sites of Comoé National Park and Taï National Park. However, these areas are also threatened by increasing pressure through mining, agriculture expansion, the use of firewood and illegal hunting. As part of the German Development Cooperation with Côte d"Ivoire GIZ is implementing the technical cooperation project "Governance and Sustainable Management of Natural Resources in the Comoé and Taï areas of Côte d'Ivoire-(Pro2GRN)" commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and co-financed by the European Union (EU). This program is implemented with the Ivorian Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MINADER) in collaboration with other ministries including the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development and the Ministry of Water and Forests. Its overall objective is to improve the integrated governance of the Comoé and Taï regions to enable the use of natural resources in the long term, increase agricultural productivity and professionalise the management of protected areas. Pro2GRN is structured around 4 components: Component 1) focuses on capacity building for local groups to sustainably manage natural resources and increase agricultural productivity; Component 2) on capacity building for the Ivorian Office of Parks and Natural Reserves (OIPR); Component 3) on providing to the government experiential knowledge of development cooperation; and Component 4) on the introduction and dissemination of agroforestry measures. In 2022, the project was expanded to additionally work in the Bossématié area as one of the few still forested regions in the southeast of Côte d'Ivoire and to integrate additional forestry measures. The overall project has a duration from 02/2020 to 12/2025 and a budget of EUR 23,800,000 for the German contribution.
