The Rural
Development Institute
|
The
Rural Development Institute is based in Mansakonko in the Lower
River Division where it is currently the training unit of the
Department of State for local government and lands. From inception in
1979 to date, it has been the leading institution in the Gambia in the
promotion of training of rural development practitioners both in
government and non-governmental organizations. The present activities
of the institute are limited to a regular two-year certificate course
in Integrated Rural Development.
RDI has established an excellent relationship with WARD, and its staff
has participated actively in the delivery of WARD
training programs. The principal of the institute has benefited from
the in-Canada Training of Trainers program and three other RDI staff
have also received training on facilitation techniques organized by
WARD. The principal is a member of WARD's advisory
committee and takes part in all its sittings. |
