Over the years FIT has accumulated a wealth of experience in designing and delivering capacity building programs and training services in a wide range of sectors. We have worked with our local partners to develop capacities and skills to address development issues in a wide range of sectors, including: small and medium enterprise development; micro and medium-scale credit program design and management; environmental management; public administration; rural development; agriculture; science and technology; human settlements; and economic cooperation. FIT has also managed funds on behalf of donor agencies that have contributed to human development projects.

FIT provides capacity building support through a variety of approaches:

  • institutional strengthening projects
  • organisational development projects
  • human resource development analysis
  • curriculum design and development
  • focused workshops and practicums for trainers
  • intensive management development programs
  • custom-designed study tours and internships
  • support for international exchanges and networking
  • workshops and practicums on specific sectorial or technical issues
  • problem solving and counselling services for the clientele of the host organizations
  • marshalling resources and expertise for human resource development programs

Programs are organized under the following broad areas:

  • Economic development programs that build capacties for the management of economic change, promote economic cooperation internationally, enhance the productivity of enterprises and create an enabling environment for entrepreneurship.
  • Social development activities that aim to improve the condition and position of people by strengthening the public institutions and civil society organisations that work at the grassroots, with a particular emphasis on gender equity and reaching the most vulnerable
  • Public Sector Strengthening programs for national development that build sound systems of governance with a focus on public policy formation and administration, institutional reform and development, and building effective processes for civil society-government dialogue and collaboration.
  • Environmental management initiatives that promotes the environmental imperative in the design, planning, implementation, and evaluation of development programs.
