Postgraduate Programme for Sustainability Cooperation (PGP)

Are you a master's graduate looking to establish yourself in international cooperation or development cooperation? Our 9-month postgraduate programme offers a research-intensive and insightful preparation for a professional career in international cooperation. Seminars on global development, trainings to strengthen your social and professional competencies, and individualised coaching will prepare you for your entry into the field and your career in international cooperation.

Each year, we select 18 people for our 9-month programme.

How does cooperation in partnership work?

In the Programme, you will strengthen your cooperation skills through intensive teamwork and collaboration with our international partners. The Programme continuously fosters opportunities for meaningful encounters and exchange. We not only teach cooperation, we live it.

How do research findings influence policy-making?

At IDOS, we work empirically at the interface between science, policy and development practice. Our participants gain experience in theory-led and empirically based policy advice as a basis for political decision-making. This proximity to political decision-making processes makes the Postgraduate Programme at IDOS unique.

How do postcolonial power structures shape our work?

What is my positionality as a researcher and adviser? What are my privileges in a world shaped by inequalities? In the Postgraduate Programme, you will also reflect on the limitations of our work in international cooperation.

What does it mean to be part of an international network?

At IDOS, we integrate learning and networking. Our alumni work in different professions in the field of international cooperation. Our participants benefit from being part of this extended, personal network. Moreover, you will exchange with participants from our training and dialogue formats MGG and Shaping Futures. We consider fostering mutual exchange within trust-based networks as fundamental for international cooperation.
