Networking Initiative

The Networking Initiative funds three types of rural community projects aimed at building community capacity: learning events, partnerships and networks. The Initiative runs until March 2008.

The following are a few examples of activities that could qualify for funding:

Learning events: training and skills development for community stakeholders and needs/assets identification for rural and remote communities.

Partnerships: the development of action plans for community development and community capacity building, and carrying out socio-economic research on the issues faced by rural communities.

Networks: enhancing the capacity of communities and community organizations to develop responses to rural and remote community issues thereby contributing to community capacity building.

You can get more information on the Initiative by clicking on the items below.
