The United Nations Development Program (UNDP), which finances this project, has invited well-known international expert Mark Hollingworth to Baku.

The expert told the training participants about the formula for successful strategic planning, planning scenarios and other issues.
In an interview with journalists, Mark Hollingworth noted that civil society organizations are becoming increasingly important in any environment.
“Strategic planning gives organizations the opportunity to take a step back to gain more time to think about bigger issues. They need to address the long-term sustainability of organizations.
