As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance institutional efficiency and ensure the sustainability of its programs and initiatives, and within its continued commitment to capacity building, the Arab Renaissance for Democracy and Development (ARDD) conducted a four-day specialized training for its team on resource mobilization, management, and fundraising. The training aimed to develop the team’s skills in designing innovative funding strategies and expanding the organization’s resource base, thereby strengthening the sustainability of ARDD’s work and amplifying its societal impact — in line with its vision of supporting the localization of humanitarian and development efforts and building a more sustainable and inclusive system.
This training was part of ARDD’s broader approach to investing in the development of its staff’s capacities. It was specifically tailored to meet the organization’s needs and future strategy, focusing on equipping the team with practical tools and effective methods for developing partnerships, diversifying funding sources, and improving financial planning for projects.
The training also provided a valuable opportunity for team members to align their understanding and vision regarding resource mobilization and fundraising methodologies, strengthening integrated teamwork within the organization and enabling ARDD to achieve higher levels of efficiency and effectiveness in implementing its programs and initiatives.
It is worth noting that this training was held within the framework of the project “Furture Forward: Unlocking Local Sustainabe Opportunities,” funded by the Regional Development and Protection Programme (RDPP). The project aims to support and build the capacities of local civil society organizations in advocacy, livelihoods, and community impact — thereby advancing the localization of humanitarian and development action and contributing to sustainable development.
