in South Asia and run by South Asia.
The annual professional training programme in Sri Lanka brings together practitioners and policy makers from the development, peacebuilding and conflict resolution
sectors across South and Southeast Asia and beyond to share experiences, reflect on their practice and develop new approaches for working in and on conflict in their countries. Our approach to training is as a means to acquire and develop practical skills relevant to peacebuilding and development in South Asia . Rather than
following a lecture format, the Professional Training Programme focuses on
skills development through hands-on, experiential learning. Click for More information that can be found on our website.
