Conservation - Development - Global Learning

You want to communicate development cooperation topics in your educational work?
You are looking for easily interpreted and practical materials or background information on projects and approaches in the countries of the South?
You want to push global learning and bring together nature conservation & development?

In the educational materials, publications and initiatives presented here you can browse and get suggestions. Sustainability issues are presented as clearly as possible, their contents differentiated and presented from different perspectives. The topics range from the protection and sustainable use of biodiversity to energy, water and climate change to the ecological footprint.

The technical publications provide you with further specialised background information, particulary on protected areas, their management and governance structures, as well as climate change and nature-based solutions to current societal challenges.

Many of the materials have been developed in close cooperation with partner countries of the German Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ GmbH – German International Cooperation) as well as their project BIODIV for the implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity. Many publications involve projects commissioned by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and in cooperation with other institutions such as the World Conservation Union IUCN, WWF or KfW Entwicklungsbank.
