TRAINING AND CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT

Through the Capacity Development Department, we build the capacity of individuals and organizations to think in a new way, systematically, inclusively, and sustainably, and to realize the value of their contribution towards shaping and flourishing in a new sustainable economy for building sustainable institutions and resilient communities.

We are passionate about training others with our tools and approaches, as we believe this is an effective way to make a long-term impact. We do this through various training courses, workshops, resources and toolkits, and field visits.
The training courses are launched from different perspectives, using standardized methods with high quality and up-to-date learning materials and trained experts in various fields of studies from introductory to advanced levels.

Our capacity development services are delivered under four main divisions: training courses and workshops, professional practices, short courses, and environmental events management.

We offer three packages:

  • Expert Package
  • Corporate Package
  • Societal Packages

Some of our crucial capacity development offers are:

  • Training and Workshops on Pollution
  • Climate Change
  • Natural Disasters
  • Agriculture
  • Environmental Management and Monitoring
  • Natural Resources
  • Sustainable Development
  • Professional Courses of Basic and Advanced GIS, R for Statistics and Data Science, Research Methodology, Academic Writing
  • Short Courses on Article/Research Paper Writing and How to Get Published.

Why Capacity Development?

Capacity building is the long-term process of increasing the ability of a country to identify and solve its problems and risks and maximize its opportunities. It involves mobilizing human, institutional, and other resources and their subsequent strengthening and development. During and after the Rio conference, capacity building for the environment became a significant focus for international assistance and cooperation. This area encompasses a range of activities that cannot be seen in isolation from other initiatives to strengthen environmental stewardship or their overall relation to the economic and social fabric.

In its broadest interpretation, capacity building encompasses human resource development (HRD) as an essential part of development. It is based on the concept that education and training lie at the heart of development efforts and that without HRD, most development interventions will be ineffective. It focuses on a series of actions directed at helping participants in the development process to increase their knowledge, skills and understandings and to develop the attitudes needed to bring about the desired developmental change.

Developing countries should move as quickly as possible towards self-reliance in environment management supported by a well-targeted programme of technical assistance and training. This process should be open to all dealing with the environment and environmental issues. As Afghanistan is also a developing country, capacity building for the climate is crucially needed. Hence, Daira Sabz thrives on serving Afghanistan through its Capacity Building and Professional Development Department and contributes to achieving sustainable development goals.

Capacity Development Department

We adopt a comprehensive approach to capacity development, using many tools to build human capital, not limiting ourselves to training and mentoring techniques. We believe each person possesses an innate potential that can be harnessed, leading to positive change and personal growth. We measure success based on the learners’ capability and motivation to perform to their utmost.

Who are the clients?

The needs for capacity building are constantly changing. There are no ready solutions, and any programme must be appropriate for the local situation and organization. The main clients are local government, university students, communities, and NGOs, but the central government and the private commercial sector also need support. Community groups, often with solid NGO support, need to improve their capacity to plan, organize and manage their neighbourhoods. Local government departments play an increasingly important role in enabling community groups to enhance their abilities and effectiveness.

Packages We Offer:

Seeds for Sustainability (S4S) Training Series

Climate change, financial crises, resource depletion, and the increasing gap between the rich and poor are the challenges and environmental problems faced by most countries worldwide. Navigating the chaos, engaging people to work together, listening deeply to each other, and co-creating solutions are fundamental skills in our society. Thus, S4S (Seeds for Sustainability) is a professional training series designed to equip participants with the science and knowledge of major environmental issues to be the engine of positive change in their community and contribute to sustainable development goals in Afghanistan.

S4S is a training course series aligned with the United Nations’ sustainable development goals. As part of our understanding of offering a sustainable product, we want to transform each participant into a seed for sustainability. We believe that each person enlightened with the knowledge of environmental issues is a SEED for sustainability and development in the country. Our motto for S4S is “Knowledge for Transformation.” At S4S, we believe that transformation comes from an awareness-based view.

S4S is a professional green training series designed for researchers, specialists, environmental activists/specialists, environmental advocacy NGOs and communities, university students, policymakers, or anyone interested in environmental, development, or sustainability issues. We are focusing on issues that promote this holistic view of the world, where economic processes are aligned with nature and societal needs.
