Ammon News - The Goethe-Institut launches the joint initiative "Horizons: Opportunities for the Future", that connects young academics from the Middle East with German companies for an online job shadowing between September and November 2021.

The project is led by the Goethe-Institut in cooperation with the German Federal Foreign Office, the DIHK and the BDI.

The project enables special encounters between experienced German companies and highly qualified professionals from the Middle East - this year in a virtual way due to the pandemic.

"A great opportunity for qualified young professionals to develop their skills - linguistically and culturally - and to make themselves familiar with the German business culture at the same time." Director of the Goethe-Institut, Dr. Norbert Spitz.

The participating companies offer young professionals from Iran, Iraq, Jordan or Lebanon an insight into the working methods and cooperation of a German company within the framework of an online job shadowing. At the same time, they have the opportunity to explore the potential of a possible target market and exchange experiences with a specialist in their sector.

Further information and the registration form for companies and professionals can be found on the website of the Goethe-Institut.
