Testimonial

Find Out Why People Trust Us

Train The Trainer Programme was a great opportunity for me to connect with all trainers in the field who know best the context of Yemen and in specific the Civil Society Organisations in Yemen. HAD provided me with the right skills & knowledge to be able to tackle some difficult projects and tasks in my field of work. The academy is helping to leave a legacy and build the true capacity of local CSOs and to also have a team of local experts and trainers like myself who’ll be ready to provide training for the purpose of improving the performance of CSOs for the benefit of the Yemeni citizens.

Khalid from Yemen on the TTT programme

“The training added new information and knowledge to my understanding which reflected in my report writing and proposals directed to stakeholders, decision makers and donors. I am now able to write reports that are more comprehensive clear, and rich with information. Since the training, we have secured new projects and are aiming to have long-term ones as well to ensure we maintain the sustainability of our association and benefit large numbers of vulnerable people in the Gaza Strip who are suffering from difficult conditions.” I’d like to give a massive thank you to HAD who helped me improve my skills and transformed my abilities as a humanitarian.”
