The course ‘Innovative Collaboration for Development’, an e-learning course on social media tools, is an initiative of the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
The Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA) seeks applications to grant a limited number of scholarships exclusively to candidates from African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries. The scholarship covers the entire course fee of € 600.
The focus of the course is on capacitating development professionals to adequately use the potential of social media tools to enhance the efficiency of their work, increase the outreach of their organizations, and contribute to the improvement of the effectiveness of the social issues they work with.
Interested candidates must complete the scholarship form and submit it by completing the online application form. The number of scholarships is limited (maximum 30) that will be awarded through a selection process.
Successful candidates who are awarded a scholarship will be advised accordingly some days prior to the start of the course.
It must be note that applicants from other countries may also apply on a full-fee payment basis. The course fee in that case is USD 850.
Last date for submitting the application for scholarships is July 4, 2011
