environmental consulting

Technology transfer, particularly in developing nations, is an avowed goal of the administration, to which end we have set ourselves two waste technology objectives: (a) promoting sustainable waste management and harmonizing waste management practices with European environmental standards in the target countries; and (b) generating business for German waste management technology providers.

Since the year 2000 the Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMU) runs the Advisory Assistance Programme (AAP) to support projects aiming for environmental protection in the countries covered by the programme. The target regions of the programme are the states of Central and Eastern Europe, the Caucasian countries and Central Asia.
