Project Description
In the program, „Sustainable Economic Development in Iraq“ (SEDI), GIZ introduced concrete steps for the collaboration between public and private actors to promote SMEs and employment.
AMBERO’s and project partners project is part of the SEDI program and addresses the acute shortage of local skilled workers in Iraq’s automotive sector. It thereby contributes towards improving Iraq’s employment rate at large.
Goals
The project invites all stakeholders in the automotive sector – both private and public – to participate. Our consortium (AMBERO, bfz and KGE) sustainably establishes the cooperation between European automobile companies, Iraq’s „one-garage operations“, as well as public education. Market-oriented continued education offers arose out of this cooperation.
AMBERO and its project partner undertake the organization of these trainings. The organization is subsequently transferred to a stakeholder representative. The project is initially planned for Kurdistan (Erbil) with the possibility of expanding to other regions and industries.
