On December 17, the third seminar of the program was held, dedicated to the practical issue of finding partners for community development. The focus of the meeting was on where and how to find reliable partners, build contacts, and turn networking into real opportunities for communities.
Together with trainer Olga Oliinyk, participants reviewed available resources and platforms for finding partners, including European and Ukrainian cooperation networks, programs, and associations, and discussed approaches to establishing contacts and participating in professional events. The practical part of the seminar was devoted to developing a plan for finding partners, taking into account the needs and potential of each community.
The training program continues, with new topics, tools, and practical developments ahead that will help communities confidently build partnerships, attract resources, and implement development projects.
The training program is being implemented as part of the institutional support provided by the Vinnytsia Regional Development Agency under the Swiss-Ukrainian project “Cohesion and Regional Development of Ukraine” (UCORD), which is being implemented with the support of Switzerland through the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation by NIRAS Sweden AB.
