INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY |
As a federal enterprise, the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH supports the German Government in achieving its objectives in the field of international cooperation for sustainable development. We work in a variety of fields and support our cooperation partners in designing strategies and meeting their policy goals. GIZ Viet Nam is currently engaged in four priority areas: 1) Vocational training; 2) Environmental policy and sustainable natural resource use; 3) Energy; 4) Sustainable Economic Development. Gender equality is one of the key values of our company and of the work we do. Fostering gender equality in our project operation and our internal equal opportunity provisions are two strategic pillars of our corporate identity and policy. For further information please visit our website: www.giz.de/viet-nam.
GIZ advises the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) on achieving its goals in energy cooperation with the Energy Partnership countries through the global project Energy Partnerships.
Important objectives of the cooperation are the promotion of political and technical exchange on energy topics between Germany and the partner countries. The Energy Partnership projects support the specialist units in the BMWK in coordinating the processes of the Energy Partnerships in a uniform manner, aligning them strategically, filling them out in terms of content, and achieving a uniform external communication policy as well as political visibility.
The Energy Partnerships are one of the central instruments of the German government’s foreign energy policy strategy. The Vietnamese-German Energy Partnership acts as a dialog platform for bilateral exchange in the energy sector for actors from both countries in politics, business, civil society, and research.
Empowering women working in the energy sector is a particularly important aspect of the Energy Partnership. The Vietnamese-German Energy Partnership supports networking and exchange among female energy experts and increases their visibility through the establishment and operation of the Vietnam Energy Women Network (EWN).
To support the implementation of the Secretariat Energy Partnership and EWN, the project is offering an internship opportunity with details below:
