Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (Lebanon)

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) has been supporting German-Lebanese cooperation for more than 20 years.

Germany is supporting reconstruction and – in conjunction with the recovery assistance provided by the international community – is promoting the broad-scale restoration of stability in Lebanon. As part of its response to the ongoing crisis in Syria and the large numbers of refugees and displaced persons in the region, the German Government has further expanded its support for Lebanon.

GIZ’s projects in Lebanon focus on:

• Education: Refurbishing schools, improving the learning environment in state schools with Lebanese and Syrian students
  
• Employment: Increasing jobseekers’ employability and enhancing the effectiveness of the Lebanese labour market
  
• Water: Improving the lives of Syrian families and host communities in Lebanon by upgrading the water supply.
