Training Courses and Workshops

SHATIL conducts a range of training workshops, courses and seminars each year to provide activists with hands on opportunities to acquire and practice new skills. Trainings range from focused half-day workshops to multi-session, even yearlong courses conducted in cooperation with academic institutions.

In 2007, SHATIL conducted over 120 separate types of seminars and workshops, involving approximately 3,600 organizational representatives. Participants in workshops and seminars increase their skillsets in a wide range of topics from general organizational development to specific project related courses.
