On 9 November 2026, Madad, in partnership with the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), launched a course to prepare trainers for non-governmental, non-profit organisations. Course participants will go on to deliver training for local NGO representatives across all 14 regions of Uzbekistan.

The course is part of the grant project “Strengthening the Legal and Institutional Capacity of Non-Governmental Non-Profit Organisations”. The first day’s programme covered how to establish and register an NGO, the powers of governing bodies, reporting requirements and cooperation with public authorities.

During the 9–13 November sessions, participants will develop practical skills in preparing international grant applications, drawing up project budgets, managing projects and evaluating their results. The programme also covers financial sustainability for NGOs, information security and the use of digital technologies and artificial intelligence.

Final assessment interviews and the presentation of certificates are scheduled for 14 November. The follow-up training in the regions will help local NGOs organise their work in line with legal requirements and strengthen their skills in project design and management.
