The Grassroots Institute specializes in developing the skills and potential of individuals and attempts to deliver multicultural education and training. Capacity building activities include facilitation of effective human resource, democratic participation and community involvement in field programs, improved quality and equity in community initiatives, and integration of advocacy perspectives. It offers uniquely relevant, international-quality and professional education opportunities for the potential leaders, managers and field personnel of development projects of government agencies, support agencies, academic institutions, NGOs other civil society organizations.
Our training and capacity building activities are divided into a) International Trainings; b) Project-Based Trainings & CB; and c) Customized Trainings.
The Grassroots Institute organizes for global audiences and trainees the following two types of programs.
Majority of our field-based projects operating under “Action & Field Programs” inculcate the trainings and capacity building of the stakeholders and participants of the projects. We thrust upon the active participation and involvement of the beneficiaries and local communities/citizens. Depending on the nature of the field-based project or a study project, we propose the capacity building actions within the design of the project. The examples of the field-based projects are listed below.
The Grassroots Institute helps ensure that managers develop the specific skills for shaping the organizations. Its trainers and professionals bring with them a core set of proven strategies and approaches based on research and rich personal experience for developing leaders. TGI is a community of practitioners whose purpose is to build a better world by providing education and training to individuals in intercultural understanding and global development. All programs are built on the participants’ prior development work experience and their ability to contribute directly to strengthening the capacity of their own organizations. TGI provides managers of NGOs with the intensive education and intercultural training that is essential for enhancing their own performance and their organizations’ effectiveness.
The various organizations, especially supporting agencies, seek Customized Trainings to their staff personnel or partners. The Grassroots Institute offers tailor-made trainings, study visits and TOTs. The Tailor-made Trainings and TOTs are developed in close consultation with partner organizations, ensuring that participants can apply the things they learn in the situation back home.
On demand of Government Organizations, Donor Agencies, Support Agencies, Academic Institutions, INGOs, Aid Agencies, NGOs, CSR Groups and other organizations including Government-run Development Projects, the Grassroots Institute prepares, designs, reshapes and revises a number of ‘training packages’ for their partners, managers, field personnel and executives. Budgeting of such training packages is done on the basis of their needs and demands. The Grassroots Institute conducts such trainings at the places convenient or strategic to the client organizations. In case, the logistic arrangements are all made by the client organizations, the Grassroots Institute simply delivers the trainings on the place of their choice.
The following are some illustrative training packages:
