Building a bridge for the environment
The International Environmental Transfer Center ITUT was created in Leipzig as a joint initiative of the Federal government, the German economy and the Saxonian state legislature.
The Republic of Germany holds a special responsibility for Environmental Technology: experience from the redevelopment and restructuring of former German Democratic Republic, the existing know-how in engineering and planning offer numerous foundations to solve similar problems in other regions of the world.
