I am a Kenyan working as a development worker on a health project in Somalia. I posses a post graduate degree in business administration. I love reading widely on social sciences and empowering/motivating people. Formerly I was a trainer. |
I am fairly new in development work and the CTB will come in handy as reference material. We work with the community and therefore any information on how to improve collaboration is highly welcomed. The resource would be more valuable if I could send CD-ROM of the CTB and other related resources that I could share with practitioners and the community that we work with. |

Fadma wants me to bring tools about community development and community needs evaluation. Your site seems to be the answer to my prayers as most of the sites I found until now had a focus on North America or Europe. Do you answer specific questions? Thanks Louise |

I work with inter- and intra-agency teams of human services providers to coordinate and integrate services to vulnerable families and individuals. I provide instruction to social work students at a state university. |
This is a fantastic resource, and very user-friendly. The framework for program evaluation is a nice succinct overview for non-evaluation researchers, but provides a great introduction to the process. I will use this to introduce an undergraduate class in social work practice with organizations and communities to basic program evaluation concepts. They're useful tools for assisting community-based teams and workgroups with assessment and planning - all very accessible. Thank you! |

I am a human rights activist, a humanitarian, and a community developer. My biggest project now is the Woodlawn community. It was once a beautiful thriving community and now it has been ravaged by crime and neglect, in danger of gentrification. There is no strong leadership to pull everything together and get the necessary changes made. My goal is to build an organization that will do what the community leaders of that community have failed to do. |
I just visited today and from what I have seen it will make a tremendous difference in getting me started. |

I'm an executive director in the Iraqi Civic Action Network(ICAN). ICAn is an Iraqi NGO established in 2006. ICAN seeks to build an independent and active civil society that contributes to a democratic political process and transition in Iraq. ICAN's mission is to develop Iraq's civil society groups through capacity building trainings including organizational development and advocacy campaigns, and provide a forum for information exchange on best practices that lead to their growth and development. ICAN conducted several programs aimed to develop and building capacity of many Iraqi NGOs. |
In fact we got benefit a lot from the CTB materials. It helps to develop our skills and increase our knowledge. We hope that CTB adds Arabic language to enable many civil society activists who are indeed to such topics. |

I have really appreciated the information from this site for quite a while. I have not logged in lately, I like the change. I have a nonprofit organization and I work with other organizations. I do work to encourage African American parents to take a more active role in the education of their children. I am currently working to plan a strategy to address the gang or neighborhood rivalry in a Washington D.C. Children from one neighborhood fighting and even shooting children from other neighborhood to keep them out of the school that is in one group's neighborhood or that requires that children work through the other's neighborhood to get to school or even take the bus. |
Not sure at this time. |

I started working as a translator and an English trainer for a NGO under EC called IMPACT (Integrated Management for Prevention And Control and Treatment of HIV/AIDS)under Health Research Unit Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran. On the way, I was then pulled into a female with HIV community to help them to improve their capacity building program. I am so happy because this is my chance to directly involve myself in helping others in needs. |
I need to settle a good capacity building program which meets my capacity as an English graduate who also has an interest in equal treatment for female PLHA. |

Thanks! I simply googled 'Action Plans' and came across your site. Very fitting as I started my graduate work at KU and have recently been considering contacting Dr. Fawcett to discuss my plan to complete my graduate work - now in the area of organizational management.
