Comments from previous trainings:

“Motivating, practical and clear….has left me energised!...It has opened to me a new and different way of working as a community activist…. Challenging, occasionally uncomfortable, but enriching and refreshing….A good ‘wake-up’ call……Being part of this training has made me believe that I have a great role to play in my community to effect positive change……Great team building….Very good, given with humour, and a feeling of belonging already”.
