Our Delivery mechanisms
Training

Based on the needs of our partners, we organize targeted and specialized trainings for partner representatives to impart transferable skills and competences using empowering and participatory methodologies and well thought out curricula. Our trainings cover all our core areas of expertise.

Mentorship

Our highly skilled technical advisors offer hands-on, be-spoke mentorship and accompaniment to our partner staff to enhance and hone-in specific skills and competencies for impactful performance.

Convenings (physical and nonphysical)

To promote peer experiential learning, we organize and facilitate convenings that bring together partners in similar leaning cohorts to share and learn with and from each other’s experiences of success programming and failure.
Most of our TAs initiatives include a combination of the three delivery methodologies.
