The Deep Democracy Institute is in an advanced stage of developing a 3 Leadership Program in Sierra Leone, in collaboration with the Center for Justice and Peacebuilding Sierra Leone (see contact details below). It will be a unique program, the first in a series of programs geared towards African Leadership.  We hope to conduct our first trainings towards the late fall of 2008.
Here are the components:

Year 1:
Facilitation, Leadership and Processoriented Management


This year will teach facilitation and leadership skills, and build management skills on these foundations.

Year 2:
Organizational Development, Collaboration, Financial Strategies

This year will teach conflict resolution and collaboration within tribal, ethnic and national diversity, and show how organizational development and financial strategies and habits are linked to these patterns.

Year 3:

2) Health Leadership
