ABC NGO FINANCES
The training course took place in Hollókő, Hungary between 04 – 10 May 2022 hosted by Egyesek in Holloko, Hungary. This training allowed participants to develop a common understanding towards finance management and to enhance cooperation. It brought together ten participants from four different continents: Nepal, Togo, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Argentina, Ecuador, France, Indonesia, Japan, and South Africa. The team of trainers included Kata Somlai and Cihan Kilic.
The training was designed for NGO workers/volunteers who deal with finances, but do not have a financial professional background.
OBJECTIVES OF THE TRAINING COURSE:
● Decreasing the fear surrounding finance management.
● Raising consciousness of own competences on finance management.
● Learning in which areas to ask for professional help and what are the tasks that can be performed without being a bookkeeper.
● Learning about the planning process – plan-do-review cycle and to understand when to act and on what.
● Raising understanding of financial management tools; of their usage and meaning.
For both trainings toolkits were finalised and an online MOOC was created to support the learning process. The MOOC can be found on the CCIVS online learning site: www.ccivs.org/ilearn and the toolkits of the CCIVS website resources section.
