In the second half of 2009, Wageningen International will once again be offering a number of annual courses for which you can still apply:
* Leadership and adaptive management: supporting decentralised forest and nature management for rural development
* Landscape functions and people: applying strategic planning approaches for good natural resource governance
Our courses combine the latest developments in a specific field or sector with the opportunity to exchange knowledge and experiences with professionals from all over the world. The courses are job-oriented, interactive and experience based. Our trainers use a variety of formats: lectures, case studies, group discussions and assignments, and field study. Participants develop a Personal Action Plan, in which they integrate all course topics and relate them to the reality of the participants' working situations.
For more information on these courses and online application, please visit our website, http://www.cdic. wur.nl/UK/ Courses/Overview +Courses+ 2009/
