Does this sound a bit like your story?

Yet you have difficulties in finding a financial basis for the future and draft conform proposals for the relevant donor programs. Reporting and donor requirements are bogging you down. Staying on track in a continuous project cycle appears
more difficult than initially predicted, due to lack of experience or defined project practices. Also maintaining long-term relations with donors have become difficult with the continuous project load and lack of staffing.

• The initiative runs successful in the local frame, but you lack contact to international experts who could provide a greater perspective and bring the program to the next level. Though you developed your own working method, a strategic connection to a greater framework of values and consciously refining your approach on the thematic level, promises to let you focus more energy on more relevant areas.

The funds are in reach, however you need assistance on how to work out a locally relevant proposal, develop the project framework on site and find reliable project partners.
