SOS Children’s Villages Palestine CBO Staff Completed 20-Hour Proposal Writing Training Program

Between October 2023 and February 2024, the GRANTS Team delivered a 20-hour professional Proposal Writing Training Program for staff from four community-based organizations (CBOs) in Hebron, as part of a capacity-building initiative implemented for SOS Children’s Villages Palestine. Eight participants successfully completed the face-to-face training program.

The training focused on strengthening participants’ capacities in designing and developing high-quality donor Concept Notes. Participants enhanced their skills in project idea development, problem identification and analysis, Results Chain design, Logframe development, Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Planning, risk management, action planning, and initial project budgeting.

The program combined interactive presentations with practical group exercises, enabling participants to transform project ideas into donor-oriented Concept Notes. As part of the hands-on learning process, participants collaboratively developed two Concept Notes addressing women's economic empowerment and the prevention of early marriage, reinforcing their ability to prepare competitive funding proposals for future donor opportunities.
