MASHAV Professional courses are offered annually in Israel and abroad that are based on a “train the trainers” approach to institutional and human capacity building. These training programmes are specially designed for individuals and organizations from developing countries for improving their skills and building their capacity in effectively addressing issues, managing projects, advocating for rights and replicating successes in their areas. Such programmes are golden opportunities for NGOs in low income countries as they not only help in increasing their knowledge but also build strong networking with like-minded institutions and open newer opportunities.
MASHAV focus primarily on areas in which Israel has a competitive advantage, including agriculture and rural development; water resources management; entrepreneurship and innovation; community development; medicine and public health, empowerment of women and education.
We have developed a list of upcoming training programmes organized by MASHAV (Israel’s Agency for International Development Cooperation) for this particular year 2016. Many of these programmes offer full or partial financial support to participate in these training programmes which are held internationally at different locations.
