Offered as an open call for International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) staff and others interested in the emerging discipline of partnering approaches, a Partnership Brokers Level 1 Certified Training was organised by ICIMOD in association with the Partnership Brokers Association (PBA) 7-10 June 2016 in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Twenty-eight participants from eight different countries participated in the training geared toward professionals working with partners and those who manage and develop multi-stakeholder partnerships.

This is the second training organised by ICIMOD and PBA. Due to the relevance of the training for practitioners and the high demand, another training will be offered in February 2017. Details to follow. Interested candidates may contact partnerships@icimod.org for further information.
