ALADIN Members Held Meeting in Canada

In April 2002, seven selected ALADIN members met at the Coady International Institute to discuss general ALADIN issues and capacity building approaches.

Main Outcomes of the Meeting

A new design for the ALADIN website has been developed and it has been agreed to enhance the ALADIN website by making it a knowledge platform for information and research on adult learning. The ALADIN application form has been simplified. For assisting ALADIN members that need institutional support ALADIN wants to concentrate on the training of their human resources. In 2003 at least one ALADIN member of each region shall be sent on a scholarship to the next ‘Managing NGO Resource Centers’ course that will run at the Coady International Institute from May 13 to June 7, 2003. The mid-term vision is to develop a training manual on how to document and organize information (in English, Spanish and French) and a training strategy at regional level.
