On Friday 30 August 2013, a delegation from the Lao People's Democratic Republic, Indonesia, and Vietnam visited the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre at its premises in Bonn, Germany. The 20 delegates were TVET experts from ministries and TVET institutions and visited as part of a 9-month International Leadership Training programme on TVET, Climate Change and Green Jobs funded by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. They were accompanied by representatives from the Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg
. The aim of the visit was to learn more about the work of the International Centre and its global Network, particularly in the area of Greening TVET.
Mr Shyamal Majumdar, Head of UNESCO-UNEVOC, delivered the opening remarks, in which he highlighted the important role of young people in promoting sustainability in TVET. This was followed by a presentation from Ms Dagmar Winzier, Programme Expert at UNESCO-UNEVOC, on ‘Advancing Greening TVET (GTVET) Agenda Issues and Challenges’. The delegates were also informed about an upcoming conference in Seoul, Republic of Korea (September 4-6, 2013) co-organized by UNESCO-UNEVOC, the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training (KRIVET) and GIZ. In addition, the online services offered by the Centre were introduced by Ms Lisa Freiburg, UNESCO-UNEVOC’s Communications Focal Point.
From April to June 2013 an Indonesian participant of the delegation has conducted an internship, at the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre as part of the ILT programme. The International Leadership Training (ILT) provides opportunities for highly qualified and motivated people from developing and emerging countries to prepare specifically for future leadership in their home countries.
