Since 2005, GIZ has been actively involved in Libya, despite intermittent pauses due to civil unrest. Due to the country's
fragile security situation, GIZ manages its Libyan operations from Tunisia, maintaining an office in Tripoli for project implementation.The
civil war in Libya followed the Arab Spring and the ousting of Muammar al-Gaddafi. Despite international peace talks, conflict
persists, leading to large-scale displacements. The subsequent governments have struggled to meet expectations for nation-building,
peace, and democratization. Political divisions persist, and central government functions are inefficient.GIZ, on behalf of
the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the European Union (EU), collaborates with
local authorities to focus on municipal development, decentralization, economic growth, employment, and healthcare.GIZ advises
various bodies, including the Libyan Ministry of Local Government, on state decentralization. It also provides training to
municipal administration staff in urban development and project management, with the aim of improving basic services like
waste disposal.Another goal is to empower people through a stronger private sector and enhanced training opportunities. GIZ
promotes the development of micro-enterprises by providing entrepreneurial skills training and support for startups. Vocational
training is also improved in high-demand sectors, creating better employment prospects and income for many Libyans.In addition,
GIZ is working to enhance primary healthcare in the country by increasing the efficiency of healthcare institutions and providing
professional development courses for healthcare staff.
