NGOs Establishment And Management.

Rationale

Passion is not enough to venture into Non-Governmental Organization without technical know-how on how to raise fund, build network, develop winning proposal and sustain a project. Working with communities, stakeholders, requires effective mobilization of the various stakeholders and working in partnership with them. The greatest challenge of community-driven developments is how to engage the people, raise fund and how to aggregate the effort of individuals for the benefit of all. Successful community-based projects are those that have desirable impact on the people. The impact depends on how the projects are selected and how well they meet the specific needs of the communities. Very critical to the success of community projects are the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the projects. the success of community projects depends on the professional skills that are brought to bear on the development of the project. This program is designed to equip participants with requisite knowledge and skills on how to successfully run an effective NGO.
