Roots’ Coverage
Over the past several months, we have offered learning events on a host of topics including how to leverage AI in our work, why climate change should matter to all of us, time management skills, leadership tyles, how to conduct impactful program evaluations and much more! We are currently running the maiden batch of Excelerate, a learning journey for high potential mid to senior leaders. Also on offer is Sahuri, a novel solution to build field staff capacities through audio letters (available in multiple Indian languages).
Why Roots
Roots was launched in April 2024. It currently supports over 100 CSOs and COs and over 600 people have already leveraged its capacity building offerings. Roots provides a much-needed platform for Donors to extend capacity building support to their grantees and also support smaller organizations who require this resilience building.
