‘’The classes are very interactive. Not for any moment, I have felt like I was afraid to approach my trainer or facilitator whenever I had difficulties. I felt like my friend was standing in front of me and teaching me a new method. Anything that I needed as a foreign student at MS TCDC was there”

‘‘It has been good for me as a project manager, to learn different ways of resource mobilization and how I can improve my skills in proposal writing. This is a very important course that I can recommend for every project or program manager as it is a very important skill that managers need to know how to mobilize resources."

“There is a big impact that I have seen not only from my perspective but also the perspective of my fellow participants. A lot of them have moved forward to develop resource mobilization strategies, and some of them are using those skills to engage with relevant donors to access funding. I know quite a few that have accessed funding as a result of that training - for instances our grantees in Rwanda, Zambia and Malawi who have been able to use those skills to access funds from GIZ.’’
