Viet Nam is one of the 20 regions in the world with the highest biodiversity. Intact and diverse ecosystems are key for climate protection. Protected areas in Viet Nam cover a wide range of ecosystems, including various types of forests, wetland or marine areas. Many people living in rural areas, including ethnic communities, depend on the services provided by healthy ecosystems to secure their livelihoods. At the same time, the country"s resource-intensive economic development model steadily increases pressure on ecosystems. Exploitation, industrial or tourist development harm protected areas. This resulted for example in a large part of the natural forests being degraded. Responsibilities for the regulatory framework or for strengthening capacities of protected areas are allocated to different government agencies. Moreover, until now protected area administrations in Viet Nam face a lack of resources, including finances or qualified staff for the tasks of conservation. These factors make it challenging to ensure an integrated and effective management of protected areas with diverse ecosystems. Funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the project "Management and protection of protected areas with diverse ecosystems in Viet Nam" (MEPA project for short) has officially started in 01/2025 with the major part of the implementation taking off in 2026. It involves diverse state actors, including the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment (MAE) as a political partner, the Department of Forestry and Forest Protection (VNFOREST) as implementation partner, the Department of Agriculture and Environment (DAE), Provincial People's Committees (PPC) and the Protected Area Management Board of three pilot areas (Hoang Lien National Park, Van Long Nature Reserve and Xuan Lien National Park) located in three provinces (Lao Cai, Ninh Binh, Thanh Hoa). The MEPA project aims to enhance regulatory, institutional and technical capacities for implementing integrated management of protected areas among the responsible authorities and the local population. The project interventions focus on: - Output 1: Improving the regulatory framework for an integrated management of protected areas in general and in three selected areas through the development of technical guidelines and capacity building for integrated management of special-use forests - Output 2: Identification and piloting of sustainable financing mechanisms - Output 3: Development of ecosystem restoration plans and provide support on ecosystem restoration for selected special-use forests - Output 4: Advancing the capacities of the management authorities and local communities of the selected special-use forests are improved for the planning and implementation of sustainable, community-based tourism. The collaboration with the management boards of the three protected areas, as well as with the provincial and national authorities will ensure sustained technical capacity building results as well as advancing the overall regulatory and institutional framework. Potentials for fostering gender equality are used throughout all activities. The effective management and protection of Viet Nam"s diverse protected areas requires coordinated, multi-level interventions and the application of internationally recognised technical expertise. The MEPA project is in the process of completing essential preparatory steps to ensure that technical activities can commence without delay once the project receives approval from the Vietnamese authorities. In order to ensure the effective implementation of integrated management approaches for protected areas with diverse ecosystems, the project requires comprehensive technical expertise, innovative solutions, and alignment with global best practices. Given the complexity of protected area management - including conservation finance for protect areas, digital approaches to capacity building and biodiversity monitoring, forest carbon, ecosystem restoration, and community-based tourism - the project demands highly specialised knowledge that often extends beyond domestic expertise and resources.

Since the 1990s, Bangladesh has made steady development progress and aims to achieve middle-income status by 2031 and become an industrialised nation by 2041. However, economic growth has not sufficiently translated into formal employment, particularly for youth and women. In 2024, frustration over limited job prospects culminated in mass protests, triggering political upheaval. Women's participation in the formal sector remains low at 4.6% (compared to 17.7% for men), and gender pay gaps persist. Many workers face unsafe conditions. Meanwhile, international compliance demands, particularly from the EU, are rising. Regulations such as the Carbon Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) require robust risk management and adherence to human rights and environmental standards. For Bangladesh to remain competitive and access high-value markets, the country must improve industrial and environmental safety and build related expertise. The core problem is that the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) sector in Bangladesh is not sufficiently equipped to meet the growing demand for skilled workers in the field of industrial and environmental safety. At the same time, rapid economic growth in Bangladesh, has increased demand for affordable electricity. Renewable Energy (RE) is intended to play a central role in future energy generation. While RE accounts for about 5% of installed capacity, it contributes less than 2% to actual electricity generation. The national target is 40% RE in the energy mix by 2041. However, the TVET system is not adequately prepared for this transformation. A significant increase in skilled labour is required, including professionals for planning, installation, operation, and maintenance of RE technologies, as well as for energy efficiency and management. Despite recent reforms, many TVET programmes remain outdated and overly theory-oriented. In addition, there is a shortage of qualified trainers with relevant practical experience and cooperation mechanisms between TVET institutions and companies are insufficiently developed. In this context, GIZ Project "Professional Education in Industrial and Environmental Safety" (PRECISE) focuses at supporting of practice- and demand-oriented TVET in the field of industrial and environmental safety that are closely aligned with EU sustainability requirements. The "Vocational Training in the Field of Renewable Energy" (TVET4RE) project, for its part, supports the alignment of Bangladesh"s TVET system with the emerging labour-market demand in the sustainable energy sector. PRECISE is structured into 3 outputs: 1) Steering capacities for better cooperation between TVET institutions and industry 2) Capacity Development for the implementation of cooperative TVET programmes in industrial and environmental safety 3) Transition to practical vocational training/employment for girls/women TVET4RE has 4 outputs: 1) Improved information base on supply and demand in TVET 2) Capacity development for TVET stakeholders 3) Improved secondary/higher secondary TVET 4) Improved diploma programmes The joint tender procedure ensures that both projects support the political partner, the Ministry of Education (MoE), in a consistent and coordinated manner, combining elements of PRECISE and TVET4RE: - The adaptation and development of occupational/competency standards and curricula with regard to industrial and environmental safety, as well as sustainable energy - Training of teaching and management staff - Development of teaching and learning materials - Establishment of structured cooperation mechanisms between piloting TVET institutions and companies - Support of implementation of revised programmes and courses at the piloting training institutions (Polytechnic Institutes and Vocational Schools)

Mexico is at a critical juncture in its transition toward sustainable and low-emission mobility systems. The transport sector remains one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for approximately 23% of total emissions, and represents a key area for achieving national climate commitments under the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC 3.0). Despite growing political commitment and the development of the National Electric Mobility Strategy (ENME), significant structural barriers continue to hinder large-scale deployment of electromobility. These include fragmented regulatory frameworks, limited interinstitutional coordination, infrastructure gaps, insufficient technical standards, and a lack of scalable financial and operational models. The project "MOVERSE - Urban Sustainable Mobility in Mexico", implemented by the Mexican and German governments through SEDATU and GIZ, seeks to address these challenges by strengthening enabling conditions for sustainable and inclusive urban mobility. Within this framework, electromobility plays a central role in advancing decarbonization, improving air quality, and modernizing transport systems.
