Project Overview
The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a German public-benefit federal enterprise. GIZ works worldwide in the field of international cooperation for sustainable development and has over 50 years of experience in a wide variety of areas.
Standards are the language of global trade and the basis for technological innovation. In a world of global value chains, a well-functioning and internationally harmonized quality infrastructure is essential for efficient trade and sustainable economic growth. International cooperation on norms and standards, accreditation and conformity assessment procedures, as well as market surveillance and product safety are crucial for facilitating trade, ensuring consumer protection and strengthening innovation capacities.
To support the international harmonisation of quality infrastructures, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Energie, BMWi) has been cooperating with international partner countries for many years. Germany increased these efforts with the establishment of the Global Project Quality Infrastructure (GPQI) in 2017. Through GPQI, Germany engages in international cooperation on quality infrastructure with important trading partners such as Brazil, China, Mexico, India and Indonesia. As a multi-stakeholder platform, the project brings together governments and experts from public and private sectors – technical organisations, associations and the industry.
Become part of our international team! Work together with political decision-makers and experts to make the opportunities of harmonised quality infrastructures and digitalization available to companies in Germany and Indonesia! GIZ is seeking one qualified Indonesian candidate for this position.
