The Foreign Ministry has released on behalf of the Federal Government the communication platform CommIO. From now on, German employees working abroad at international organizations and European institutions can network with the new community in order to establish social contacts and to exchange career-relevant information.

CommIO offers registered users the possibility to quickly and directly get in touch with other members and the Federal Government and to exchange personal experience abroad through the set-up of the own profile. The latest topics from the different sites of international organizations, the labor market or the employees in specific areas, all this can be discussed in forums for experts that can be individually selected and subscribed. Additional information provides the CommIO-Wiki regarding different topics like for example specialist literature, information for employees or information about Germany.
