Training in Central Asia
This page is also available in Russian
Training has been one of INTRAC’s main strategies for civil society support since we began work in Central Asia in 1994. A belief in the values of social justice, empowerment, and participation is reflected in our approach to learning. We train mixed groups from NGOs and international development agencies so that different types of stakeholders can work better together.
