🎉 25 years of impact: celebrating #develoPPP's contribution to sustainable development! 🌍 Since 1999, the develoPPP programme has been supporting private sector enterprises with the implementation of sustainable projects in developing and emerging market countries – resulting in more than 2,700 projects in over 60 countries and an investment volume of EUR 1.8 billion. 👏 DEG Impulse, together with Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH, implements develoPPP as part of the #PartnersInTransformation offer of Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ). 🍃 One of these projects is in collaboration with the German plant producer Gemini Green GmbH & Co. KG, which is part of the Selecta one group and is a leading grower of ornamental plants. 👩🏫 Through the develoPPP programme, DEG Impulse supports their subsidiary and long-standing DEG customer Selecta Kenya in setting up qualification structures for predominantly young, female workers in the Kenyan highlands and in Nairobi. 🩺 The project also helps to improve access to free medical care for a total of 1,500 employees and their families.
