Development Service contributes to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Particularly relevant in the development service is the shaping of partnerships to achieve these goals. Helping to shape partnerships - at one's own workplace, in the community, at regional and international level - and to expand cooperation and networks is a central task of the professionals.

The activities that await experienced professionals in the development service are diverse and varied. Qualified and cosmopolitan people are needed for all tasks. For example, a political scientist works to promote democracy and good governance, a climate researcher works on sustainable forest use, and an expert in water resource management contributes to improving the supply of clean groundwater. They all work in an advisory capacity and are committed to sustainable improvements in the partner countries.
