Studies and Reports

During my professional career, I have elaborated a wide range of studies and reports covering most aspects of transport economy. Most of these documents I wrote in English, but an increasing number also in French and Spanish. The number of German-language documents is rather scarce ... even during my university career I wrote most of the reports in English.

Yemen Transport-Cost Report 

Since mid-1992, I have been working as Consulting Transport Economist both with private consulting companies and with ADB Asian Development Bank. In this professional status, generally all reports are classified in a sense that the donor or the client does not wish their contents and findings to be accessible to the public. Of the wide selection listed above, I have therefore presented only some studies and manuals which I had recently elaborated

Plan Directeur du Port de Lomé 


J'avais initié travaillant comme consultant indépendant en 2004 et, depuis ce point du temps, j'avais expandé dans des études en français - une langue dont je n'avais presque aucune confiance après de 30 ans depuis mes temps au lycée

Aquí tengo dos manuales en español - a parte de algunos estudios y propuestas técnicas he escrito poco en éste idioma ... estoy más acostumbrado a hablar el español por razones familiares

Resource Production and Distribution in  the Solomon Islands

From late 1986 onwards, I worked for two years as Associate Expert under UNDTCD with the MOP Ministry of Economic Planning in Honiara, the capital of the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific. A nice and very interesting country, which I visited again with another short-term assignment in mid-2006 ... mind-boggling to talk Pidgin again after 18 years !

A 15-month economic research in the Africa Institute in Pretoria / South Africa was my first employment straight after my studies.  I returned to the institute in early 1989 to update my former study as my PhD-thesis at the Technische Universität Berlin .

Crafts and Small-Scale Enterprises in the Economic Fringe of a Southern African Developing Country - an Empirical Analysis of Situation and Potential in the Kawinga Region in Malawi 

After my 'Vordiplom' (bachelor) at the University of Würzburg, I received an internship with GTZ Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit at an integrated rural development project in Liwonde / Malawi. My survey on rural enterprises - this became my master thesis - lasted three months plus one month traveling in Tanzania, Zambia and, naturally, Malawi.
