GM1. Result Based Project Management and Basic Risk Training (4 days)

Many (national) organizations that rely on donors for financial support to maintain, expand, and create programs must be able to write strong proposals, design needs-based projects, draft LogFrames and budgets, and have a basic idea of Monitoring and Evaluation.
