The capacity building Programme for Non State Actors (NSA) in Malawi is a joint project of the Malawi Government and the European Union established in 2006 to strengthen the capacity of NSAs to provide effective and improved service delivery to local communities as well as to define independently their policy agendas and be more actively involved in policy dialogue with the government and the European Union on development issues. Our task was to develop and validate a course and subsequently train relevant personnel of Malawian NSAs to strengthen them in the identification, development, management and financing of their programmes. Also a tender dossier has been constructed.
Together with Erika Joubert, Clemens Romijn has trained relevant personnel in around 60 NSAs.
Training concerned 9 distinct areas.
- Organisational Management
- Organisational Strategic Planning
- People Management
- Project Planning and Management
- Financial Management
- Fund Raising, Income Generation and Sustainability
- Project Monitoring and Evaluation
- External Cooperation, Liaison and Partnerships
