TRENDS AND THE FUTURE OF DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION

Global megatrends provide the backdrop for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which the German Government has committed to implementing. They form the basis for the current and future orientation of development cooperation.

With the megatrends as our overarching frame of reference, we need to ask ourselves the following questions: What developments are paramount for our company? What factors currently influence our work and how what factors will shape us as a company in future? What developments do we need to respond to, what can we anticipate, and how can we prepare accordingly? Our three-year Corporate Strategy (2017–2019) is based on our discussions of all of these issues.
