Many Congregations experience today a bottle neck situation, of drying of traditional sources and emergence of new mission territories demanding financial resources.

The Project Management and Fundraising Training is one of the responses to this situation. It brings together experts from Catholic donor agencies, development consultants, practioners of religious congregations, dioceses and laity to explore together a viable solution that can be replicated across the world in Catholic development practice.
