NOREC EXCHANGE

The South to South Professional Exchange program aims at enhancing individual and institutional capacities in order to foster community development through Strømme partners in the region. Young professionals are exchanged for 11 months and on return to home organizations they share information through follow up activities.

Through this program, exchange of knowledge and skills in various CBS PEWOSA interventions is enhanced among individual participants and partner organizations. The aim is to further improve organizational capacities of our partners in the specific program focus.

CBS PEWOSA sent two participants (Micheal mboowa and Lukwago Richard) to MYRADA India between 2015 and 2016 as well received 3 participants from MYRADA (Kumar Dore, Tajuddin Gafoor and Venkatreddy Shabaranasappa).
