Six Universities in South Africa completed an ICUDDR walk-through this spring. The participants expressed that the training, which covered the 8 basic UTC courses, was very impactful. Some quotes included:
“Enrichment of our professional lives.”
“Endorsement of best practices.”
“Excited about the information. Excited about the platform.”
The walk-through training was organized by the South African Chapter of the ICUDDR for University Education Providers in South Africa. This training was funded by the ICUDDR. The trainers were from South Africa and the training was a joint effort between trainers from University of Cape Town, South Africa ITTC, and a global master trainer for Colombo Plan and UNODC who are all members of the South African Chapter of ICUDDR.
