Hello all!

My name is Sara Swett and I am joining from a small non-profit in Arusha, Tanzania called The Small Things. The Small Things strives to keep vulnerable and orphaned children in the Meru District of Tanzania in their families by creating sustainable, participatory and evolving care plans for their future. For those families most at-risk, we provide loving residential care in an effort to further strengthen the community’s long-term capacity.

My goals are to learn how to effectively develop and implement a successful M&E system into all of our work within the organization in order to reach our goals of truly partnering with the surrounding communities.

I am interested in a team for the duration of this course.

I spent two years performing various research projects across Tanzania, and have a heavy research background.

Dear SARA I would like to work with you in a team. I am in Kisangani, in the DRCongo.

Hi all! My name is Katie and I am joining from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.

Are you working for an organization? If so, what is your role?
I currently work for a church as the Communications Coordinator, which has me involved in many different areas. I've been working on the overall church brand across various platforms (web, social, & more) as well as focusing on marketing and promotions, but I am now diving in to the proposal writing and program planning side of things.

What are your goals for the course and how do you plan to apply them in your work?
I am hoping to learn a bit more about the project development and proposal process. I am taking a workshop on proposals in July. The church works with a number of organizations and missionaries across the world, so I would like to be able to better prepare myself to assist them in their project goals.

In Brussels I supported CONCORD, a network of 2.600 ONGs to design the methodology for monitoring the relations between EUDs and CSOs in the countries.
