About us

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH has been working with South Africa since 1995. The country office in Pretoria opened in 1996. Our work in South Africa is carried out primarily on behalf of the German Development Ministry (BMZ). The core areas of cooperation are: • Peaceful and inclusive societies • Sustainable economic development, training and employment • Climate and energy, just transition In order to develop inclusive societies, GIZ supports the fight against corruption. To this end, it strengthens state anti-corruption agencies and promotes partnerships between the public and private sectors and civil society. GIZ works to make South Africa safer by supporting measures to prevent violence, with a focus on gender-based violence. In terms of sustainable economic development, GIZ helps improve both the quality of TVET and the range of services in this area. It uses courses and internships to support labour market-oriented training and employment. GIZ is working on a socially just energy transition to create an economy that is environmentally friendly and a society that is climate resilient. To achieve this, it is actively involved in developing an environmentally sustainable and secure energy infrastructure and in enhancing energy efficiency. This is cutting emissions and creating new jobs, such as in the hydrogen sector. Similarly, GIZ supports the country in further developing and implementing its national climate policy so as to be able to meet its contributions under the Paris Agreement. Furthermore, as part of a European Union initiative we work to increase production of vaccines and other health products in Africa itself. It also supports the ongoing vaccination campaign against COVID-19 in South Africa. Our work in Lesotho focuses on participation in democratic processes by improving civic education, prevention of violence against women and children and integrated catchement management through regional approaches.
