The Latin America and the Caribbean region (LAC) encompass a huge diversity of landscapes and ecosystems and is highly heterogeneous in terms of economic development and social and indigenous history. The region faces serious challenges such as climate change and natural disasters; and under conditions of population growth, urbanization and industrialization efficient environmental policies and programs are required to sustainably manage the natural resources. This calls for specialists and leadership with integrated and trans-disciplinary approaches in managerial, economical, technical and governance to understand and find effectively solutions to these problems for a sustainable development. For bilateral and multilateral cooperation between Germany and Latin American countries there is a need for experts being familiar with the culture, language and politics of both sides and are skilled in intercultural communication.
Double-Degree Master Program (to be known as "Environment and Resources Management –ENREM") contributes to development cooperation of both regions Latin America and Germany in a local, regional and global context and understands development as a transition towards sustainability under four dimensions (social, economic, and environmental sustainability, and governance).
