Capacity building
For people to take control of their own lives, they need skills and knowledge.
What is capacity building?
People need skill and technique to reach their goals. Helping them get the training and education they need is what we call 'capacity building'.
Why is it important?
Creating dependence on outsiders is not sustainable. Therefore, our focus is on human resource and civic development in Brass Island's communities.
What are the benefits to the community?
- Realisation of their own development projects
- Choice of their own development destiny
- Transparent processes and true partnership
- Corporate sponsorship for local institutions
- Sustained peace, prosperity and development
