Our Community of Advisors and Our Learning Session Leaders
We would like to thank our community advisors who volunteer their time and willingly share their expertise and experience with our Rural Development Officers, Host Organizations and small non-profit and voluntary organizations in rural communities.
All of our learning sessions hosted through our web-based learning centre at WebEx are lead by experienced leaders in their field of expertise. These leaders have generously donated their time to support capacity building in rural nonprofit and voluntary organizations. We thank you for your time and support!
