Training needs assessment
Together with Susanne Pecher Consulting, E.C.O. is conducting an update of the Training Needs Analysis (TNA) for protected area managers and rangers in the SADC region on behalf of IUCN Eastern and Southern Africa. The aim is to identify skills gaps in the TFCAs KAZA, GLTP and MAZA and to create a sound basis for a training program 2025-2028. E.C.O. contributes its expertise in protected area management and participatory analysis processes, leads workshops, conducts interviews with key stakeholders and develops strategic recommendations for training prioritization. The results flow directly into the regional capacity development strategy.
