Many in the development sector understand the need to build a coalition to address some of the recalcitrant development bottlenecks. The problem most face is in translating this basic understanding into action. What are the key principles that underlie successful coalitions? How do you articulate a shared identity and vision? How do you nurture a functioning structure? How do you share roles, resources and risks in a coalition? How do you sustain motivation and commitment across the membership? How do you measure progress and harvest success?
The ‘Partnership and Coalition Building’ training is specifically designed to provide answers for these and more questions faced by leaders and organizations.
