Strategic Dialogue workshop held in SUVA
Rebecca and Mick have just returned from Fiji where they were co-facilitating a workshop for 18 CSOs in Fiji. The workshop enabled participants to explore in a safe space some of key issues and challenges facing civil society. Special focus was given the first day to developing a safe space and building confidence through concentrating on deepening the understanding of each organisation’s mandate, strategic focus areas and key stakeholders. This discussion and sharing of perspectives in small groups allowed points of intersection and synergies to emerge. Strategic priorities were identified and an action plan developed.
All participants and facilitators were extremely happy with the process and outcomes.
