Equal partnership
Project ideas and decisions are developed together with local people and institutions.
Our Mission
Education opens up opportunities.
Since 2017, GIBBZ has developed education and vocational training projects together with local partners. Our focus is on better learning pathways, career prospects and social participation.
Why we act
Education is the foundation for a self-determined life.
GIBBZ supports people and educational institutions in expanding existing education and continuing-education opportunities. We see education and research as essential foundations of a fair and well-functioning society.
Our international project work is developed in close coordination with educational institutions and local partners. Activities combine school-based learning with practical and vocational skills. Complementary research projects examine vocational education, unemployment and labour-market integration.
Needs-based
Learners, educators and education authorities are involved in planning and implementation.
Grounded in research
Studies, professional exchange and project experience provide the basis for continued development.
Global Goals
Aligned with sustainable development.
Our work is guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Two goals are particularly central to our work.
Quality Education
Promoting inclusive, equitable and accessible learning opportunities.
Gender Equality
Strengthening education and career opportunities for girls and women.
Development
From initial exchange to long-term cooperation.
