We have five strategic objectives for the next five years:
1.To increase our scale, reach and impact through developing and supporting a network of local ‘Associates’ in South Asia and East Africa. They will work alongside or in place of our UK Development Support staff in these regions to provide high quality training and mentoring support to local business service providers and trainers. This will enable them to operate sustainably and successfully to improve the livelihoods of small businesses and marginalized producers and allow more sustainable and cost-effective implementation of Traidcraft’s projects.
2.To deliver high quality, needs-based and sustainable inputs and services to Traidcraft development and business projects and, in particular, to provide effective project management services to the new producer support and innovation programme.
3.To fully embed and integrate our participatory capacity-building methodologies and business development services approach within Traidcraft and external organisations as required.
4.To become better networked and connected internally, externally and across the regions in which we work to learn, share and promote knowledge.
5.To identify and illustrate our impact and added value to Traidcraft’s vision, mission and development work.
