The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a German federal enterprise. We work to shape a future worth living in over 120 countries around the world.
Since 2013, GIZ and the International Placement Services (Zentrale Auslands- und Fachvermittlung, ZAV) of the German Federal Employment Agency (Bundesagentur für Arbeit, BA) cooperate in the joint programme “Triple Win” for the recruitment of nurses from third countries for placement of work in Germany.
In Indonesia, the annual number of graduate nurses surpasses the domestic demand on the labour market, and Indonesian nurses show interest in a career abroad. While in Germany, the nursing sector is facing a significant shortage of nurses, which is projected to still grow in the future. According to expert estimates, the nursing sector will need 150,000 new nurses by 2025.
In July 2021, the Indonesian Migrant Workers Protection Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BP2MI) and the Federal Employment Agency (Bundesagentur für Arbeit, BA) have forged an agreement on the Placement and Protection of Indonesian Health Professional in the Federal Republic of Germany. The objective is to establish a safe, orderly and regular mechanism for the recruitment and placement of Indonesian nurses for work in Germany. The placement agreement will be implemented in cooperation with BP2MI through the “Triple Win” programme.
Part of the implementation of the programme in Indonesia is to support the nurses with information surrounding the health system, nursing profession, nursing theory, concept dan model in Germany etc. This information shall be delivered to the nurses in form of nursing courses prior to the nurse’s departure to Germany.
