Humanitarian and development agencies play a very significant role in addressing the gaps in service delivery at community level. However, studies have shown that most of these agencies often lack requisite technical, financial and managerial capacity to effectively address their thematic challenges. This has resulted in poor utilization of resources and consequently low impact from their interventions among target communities.

In order to bridge the prevalent institutional and programming capacity gaps of humanitarian and development agencies, IDEAL Public Health and Development Consultancy (IPHDC) has organized a training on Organization Development and Systems Strengthening (ODSS). This approach is globally applied by funding agencies, intermediary organizations, capacity-building consultants and civil society organizations (CSOs).
