Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (Azerbaijan)

On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, GIZ has been supporting Azerbaijan’s transition to a more market-oriented economy and democracy since 1995. We are assisting the Government of Azerbaijan in establishing an economic and legal environment which is conducive to private sector development (sustainable economic development).

The primary goal is to reduce poverty by creating sustainable and broad-impact employment and income opportunities.
We are contributing to crisis prevention in the South Caucasus region via the German Government's Caucasus Initiative.

Priority areas of cooperation are:

• Sustainable economic development
  
• Democracy, municipal development and the rule of law
  
• Environment and natural resources
