The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. Its corporate objective is to improve people's living conditions on a sustainable basis. GIZ has been working in Indonesia since 1975 and formally with ASEAN since 2009 on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
The ASEAN Secretariat and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) are jointly implementing the project "Promoting Rules-Based Security Policy in ASEAN", commissioned by the Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany. This collaboration reflects Germany's long-standing commitment since 2008 to supporting ASEAN in strengthening its institutional frameworks in line with the ASEAN Community Blueprints.
The project consists of two core components. The first component, "Capacity Building for the ASEAN Secretariat" (Capacities4ASEC), aims to enhance the Secretariat's institutional and technical capabilities, particularly in advancing regional integration and supporting ASEAN's external relations. Through targeted technical and methodological support, this component strengthens the Secretariat's ability to drive and coordinate ASEAN's goals and achievements.
The second component, "Assisting ASEAN in Countering Arms Smuggling", supports regional efforts to enhance cooperation mechanisms and policy coordination among ASEAN Member States in addressing illicit arms trafficking. This component contributes to strengthening the security architecture of the region through more effective, rules-based collaboration mechanisms.
Together, these components aim to improve ASEAN's internal working structures and cooperation frameworks in the field of security policy, thereby reinforcing peace, stability, and regional integration in the Indo-Pacific.
The project is currently running until 30 April 2026, a potential project extention is currently being discussed.
