Spring Courses : Power and Priviledge
The next instalment in our Springboard series of free online courses is delivered in collaboration with our partner Sub-Sahara Advisory Panel.
The Springboard courses will provide you with support to increase your organisation’s knowledge and improve its practices in project development and delivery. You will also be able to access resources and tools to support your growth.
Each course will require a time commitment of 20 hours over 8 weeks for you to get the most out of your learning.

With your peers and the Hub Cymru Africa team to support your learning, you will put your learning into practice by applying it to your own work. Partners in Wales and Africa are welcome to join. You will need stable access to the internet as the course is delivered through our website and in Zoom Meetings.
The Power and Privilege course will include:
Finally, we will facilitate discussions to help develop action points, based on learning, specific to individuals’ and groups’ areas of work.
