Civil society network from the Horn of Africa on global stage for safer migration! 🌍 🧭 At the Review of the Global Compact for Migration (GCM), the East and Horn of Africa Anti-Trafficking (EHAAT) Network, including NGOs from South Sudan, called for decisive action against human trafficking by developing coordinated border management strategies and strengthening anti-trafficking laws. EHAAT’s 13 recommendations focus on prevention measures and awareness campaigns in border communities and contribute to aligning Africa’s migration priorities with global frameworks. EHAAT’s creation and its participation in the GCM Review are supported by the GIZ-coordinated Better Migration Management (BMM) Programme, funded by the European Union and Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ).

About us
The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH has been working in the area that is today South Sudan since the 1970s, on a periodic basis. GIZ’s coordination office has been located in the capital, Juba, since 2010. GIZ works on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development in the following three priority areas: Food and nutrition security and rural development Urban water supply and sanitation Rural development and good governance. In the field of food and nutrition security, GIZ and its partners are working to combat undernourishment and malnutrition among children and women and raising awareness for health issues. The German Government is supporting local water utilities in four towns and cities in ensuring public drinking water supplies and sanitation, while making these services affordable and accessible even for low-income groups. GIZ is involved in developing water companies and is training staff to operate the plants. To improve hygienic conditions in schools, sanitary facilities are being extended and schoolchildren made aware of the importance of hygiene. To develop rural regions in the long term, GIZ is advising and supporting selected rural districts, allowing them to deliver services in a more direct and needs-based manner. The capacities of the rural authorities are being developed, while the population (especially women) are being encouraged to get involved in planning and shaping their immediate environments. The German Federal Foreign Office is also supporting the implementation of the 2015 peace deal through GIZ.

📣Empowering African Agriculture: GIZ Staff Meet in Egypt for SNRD Africa Conference The Sector Network Rural Development Africa Agribusiness & Agricultural Policy conference took place in Cairo this year, marking the first time for Egypt to host this significant event. Over 65 GIZ professionals representing 23 African nations, alongside delegates from the GIZ Head Quarter Office, convened to strengthen collaboration within African agriculture through comprehensive partnerships, networking, knowledge exchange, and collective innovation. SNRD Africa stands as a network of GIZ experts dedicated to rural development across the continent, with a focus on areas such as policy formulation, climate resilience, digital transformation, women's economic empowerment, food security, and agribusiness. The inaugural session featured insights from Ms. May Khairy, Executive Director of the Food Export Council, Mr. Andreas Ruepp, Cluster Coordinator for Private Sector Development at GIZ Egypt, and Dr. Heike Hoeffler, Speaker of the Sector Network Rural Development (SNRD) Africa. Throughout the event, key stakeholders from Egypt's agricultural landscape participated actively, representing entities such as the Agricultural Export Council - AEC, the Food Export Council (FEC), private enterprises, and the Egyptian Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation. The concluding segments witnessed the formulation of strategic outcomes by working groups, setting the groundwork for future collaborations. These outcomes encompass new paths for international cooperation, integrated solutions for partnership management, and the cultivation of alliances. Discussions also delved into systematic portfolio management methodologies and the enhancement of Sector Networks' future, emphasising synergies between sector projects and global/bilateral initiatives. Additionally, valuable insights from Egypt's portfolio were shared, illustrating their adaptability to projects across Africa. This solid foundation lays the groundwork for further advancements at next year's conference in Lusaka, Zambia. Follow this link for more information on SNRD Africa https://lnkd.in/dFHaf_Gi

Joining the world in celebrating today’s 🌍#WorldFoodDay 🍽️, we also celebrate our team, implementing partners and, most importantly, the South Sudanese small-holder farmers 👩🏿🌾 that have constantly worked and are still working towards ensuring food security in all dimensions. At GIZ South Sudan, we aim at not just increasing #FoodAvailibilty, #FoodAccessibility but also #FoodStability and #FoodUtilization with the use of holistic approaches. All in all, our projects contribute to increasing the production of food, strengthening alternative sources of income and building capacities of extension workers, small-holder farmers and agricultural students while managing natural resources and disaster risks as well as collaboration with stakeholders. We’re committed to continue supporting small-holder households and farmers to achieve their #RightToFoods.🌽🤝 #FoodSecurity #GermanDevelopmentCooperation

💡Did you know that the right to foods goes beyond the production and consumption of food? At GIZ South Sudan, we strive to ensure that every dimension of right to foods is achieved. One way of doing this is by strengthening the small-holder farmers’ knowledge and skills on AgriBusiness at the Crop Training Center in Yei.🎓 #AgriBusiness remains an integral part of the sustainable food system! In the courses on agriculture at the Crop Training Center in Yei, students learn about business oriented farming and entrepreneurship. Improved capacity and knowledge in AgriBusiness helps farmers to better access markets and food supply chains, thereby improving the agricultural value chain.💵🌽 #RightToFoods #WorldFoodDay #GermanDevelopmentCooperation
