The overarching goal of our project is to establish sustainable cooperation structures that will contribute to the long-term stabilisation of the German, Senegalese and Ghanaian construction industries. Our project brings together a wide range of different actors at national and international level. We strive to develop a common understanding of a Skills Partnership, promote the exchange of experience and knowledge, and pursue the goal of continuing the partnership created within the project even after its completion.
Contact NowTo ensure sustainable structures, we work closely with the construction associations of North Rhine-Westphalia. The construction associations advise us on technical modules, assist interested companies from Germany with their preparations for departure, and maintain contact with companies and trainees even after their arrival. In addition, the Bertelsmann Foundation supports our project by establishing networks, providing technical and academic input, and acting as a co-financier.


In Senegal and Ghana, we work together with the relevant ministries, TVET institutions, and construction industry players. Together, we plan training programmes and modules, set quality standards and promote long-term networking between relevant stakeholders. Local partners contribute their expertise to the project design and implementation, thereby ensuring greater cooperation and sustainability
