Welcome to akzente! We invite you to explore this website and gain insights into GIZ´s work worldwide, get to know fascinating people, and to learn about leading experts´ views on crucial topics in development cooperation.
Promoting young talent is a principle that GIZ puts into action around the globe. The Nigerian-German Centre for Jobs, Migration and Reintegration organised for the second time in a row an art master class in Nigeria in collaboration with the Nike Art Gallery, one of the largest galleries in West Africa. It is supported by BMZ.
30 young artists worked with experienced teachers from Nigeria’s vibrant art scene. They then presented their impressive work in two exhibitions in the country’s capital, Abuja. #GIZakzente invites you to take a virtual tour of the gallery and look at a selection of the work on show.
