Simon Kliem

Position: Intern
Location: Germany, Bonn

I am excited to join GIZ as an intern and be part of the Transport and Climate Change Team. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Urbanism and I am currently finishing my master’s degree in Urban Planning and Mobility at TU Berlin and Universidad de Buenos Aires. My study focuses lie on transport planning and international urban development. Before my time at GIZ, I have worked on different projects in Latin America and Asia in the field of sustainable transport as well as on the implementation of transport projects in Germany.

I am passionate about the topics of active mobility and accessibility in the transport sector, and I hope to contribute to create a more resilient, just and sustainable transport landscape. Having lived in different countries in South and North America, Europe and Asia, I am interested in international cooperation and finding ways to the face the challenges of our time by supporting one another.
