Health District Management: Planning and Programme Design |
This intense two weeks course takes place once a year, in June at the Swiss TPH in Basel/Switzerland
The course in Basel 2011 will take place from 27 June - 8 July 2011
The course aims at introducing the basic principles of strategic program and project management. It is based on exercises that simulate real problems in planning and management as closely as possible to real life situations. Participants are working in small groups (max. 6 members) and take the roles of a project design mission - the group work is supervised by experienced facilitators. Using the Logical Framework Approach and other tools they will go through all steps of such a planning process and will write a project proposal document.
The course is designed especially for students with practical experience in project work or for those who aim to work in that field. Reading material will be distributed before the course and students must allocate two to three days for working with this material before the course starts. A very good proficiency of English in reading, writing and speaking is recommended for this course.
