Writing for Development
You are invited to apply for this 5-day writing course for Development Practitioners: programme managers, M&E or field staff who work within the social change and development sector.
The course will enable you to write better concept notes, project proposals, reports and case studies.
The course has three major aims:
1. Building your confidence in your own writing potential and ability;
2. Providing you with observational, reflective and analytical frameworks to improve the content, structuring and flow of your writing;
3. Improving your writing style.
Course approach
The course is practical and provides ample opportunity to experiment and practice new approaches and skills using several creative and participative exercises. The frameworks we work with are particularly important for developing a disciplined approach to observation, reflection, learning and writing. The course will produce immediate and practical results, as you will work on writing from your own practice.
