We provide practical training in project design, strategy, and capacity building, as well as educational programs based on our areas of expertise.
Traditional “professionalization” in development can be top-down, obscure, unnecessarily complex, and not inclusive of its “beneficiaries”.
True Roots’ collaborative, participatory approach helps you improve your capacity to create, sustain and demonstrate your impact in your own development projects.
In our trainings and workshops, you’ll work towards strengthening your team and better serving your mission by asking questions, thinking big, creating strategy, and reflecting.
We combine critical perspectives with tools for action via our training programs and courses, tailoring the language, support materials, and content to fit you and your stakeholders’ needs.
Rather than “training for the sake of training”, we focus on developing workshops and training programs that measure impact and evaluate participants’ level of learning and application of new knowledge.
“What I liked the best was the facilitators’ attitude—always ready to listen and to help, with a sense of humor. [José Luis and Summer] are talented at motivating and making every session an experience that rouses participants to gather, organize, and to take action …
Thank you [José Luis and Summer] for teaching from the heart!”
