Institutional Strengthening
Institutional Strengthening is an integral part of the technical support that we provide to the organizations and institutions.
Our objective is to engage the client in refocusing and streamlining the structure, processes, management resources and abilities of the organization in order that it is better able to perform the tasks and responsibilities assigned to it. A fundamental and challenging aspect of this process is ensuring that the improvements made are absorbed and sustainable beyond the life of the intervention. In this respect, many of the problems we encounter can be directly linked to lack of generation of sufficient revenue, which impacts negatively on the entire structure and activities of the institution. Therefore, if suggested changes are made, it need to build the link between revenue and sustainability. Thus, we place significant emphasis on working with clients to seek new ways to generate income as part of its capacity-building services.
Given the complex nature of institutional change-management, much of our effort is delivered through longer-term formal and on-the-job training, coaching, consultative workshops and information-sharing seminars.
