Summary of MS-TCDC Programme Strategy 2006-2010.

The main thrust of this new 2006-2010 Programme Strategy and changes from the 2001-2005 Policy Paper include:

  • A well-defined geographical focus on three primary countries (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda) and six secondary countries (Ethiopia, Northwest Somalia, South Sudan, Rwanda, Zambia and Zimbabwe)
  • Clarification that MS-TCDC’s target group is mainly civil society actors but that we will also work in certain training areas with government entities and the private sector.
  • The intention to mainstream an advocacy perspective in all our development training as a means to addressing the democratisation focus of MS
  • A plan to engage in longer-term capacity building and impact monitoring of selected organisations in the primary focus countries, in addition to the short training courses offered
  • An expanded role in development of training policies for MS incl. a revised Development Worker Preparation course which targets Development Workers for MS’ African programmes a well as Nepal and Central America
  • Clarification that language courses and hiring out of facilities for external conferences in MS-TCDC are means of income generation to support the core programme of Development training
