What is Team works! Young Expert Exchange for Sustainable Development?
Team works! enables young experts to undertake a four-week assignment in a partner enterprise in Germany.

Young experts from African countries spend a period of several weeks on assignment in Germany, with an SES expert from outside the enterprise on hand to provide support.

It is open to young people between 18 and 30 years of age who are at the end of their training or just beginning working life.
