Community development

Training

In the middle of October, CVS-Bulgaria teamed up with three more local organisations and created an event to talk about  community development.

On Wednesday and Friday evening, community leaders and members gathered to discuss how to make sure they meet their communities’ needs, no matter if they are online, offline, formal or informal. The workshops lso focussed on exchange of best practices regarding communication within the groups, as well as with the “”outside world””.

Collaboration with other communities and fundraising are always hot topics as they were during this training. Participants with different backgrounds and from both the private and the NGO sectors actively participated under the amazing facilitation of Kat from CVS-Bulgaria.
