More than 20 innovative and informative workshops sessions, interactive discussions and impactful networking prospects will comprise the Environment, Culture, Economy and Society international Forum themed Building Capacity in Sustainable Development, presented by the Terra Verde Institute. Participants will be exposed to a variety of innovative solutions to common problems faced in the sustainable development sector and beyond, and gained tools for finding new ways to approach and solve their organization's challenges.

The Terra Verde Institute is conducting Capacity Building Training Forum designed for people who plan to work or volunteer in community development, or who already work in this field and want to advance their careers. The Terra Verde Institute uses as its basis, a framework of rights-based development and the Terra Verde Institute Approach. This multi-sectoral, participatory approach focuses on the empowerment of people as both the ends and means of a genuine sustainable development process. We are training and consulting with organizations from around the world.

This program uses a multi-sector, participatory approach that focuses on empowerment of people as both the ends and means of a sustainable development process. Rather than teaching prescriptive solutions to community problems, we provide you with the tools to use the community's input and vision to create options and solutions that truly meet community needs. The program helps you learn through case studies, exercises, and group discussions, providing a complete learning environment. You will learn from, and share experiences with, practitioners working in the field around the world. This program gives experienced practitioners a fresh perspective and provides novices and volunteers the training they need to be successful working in the field of development.
