“This training will undoubtedly allow participants to engage in future training. We are very happy to see this pool of trainers engaged alongside us to launch new initiatives in the African continent. We wish you a good continuation in your future actions”, declared ISIC’s Mr. Abdessamad MOUTEI.
Among the beneficiaries of this Training of Trainers Program, Mr. Abdoulkader Iman Aden, Mayor of Boulaos (Djibouti), said: "This training has been very helpful. The modules were very well delivered for the future trainers that we are. In our action plan, we are implementing activities for a green and clean commune. In Djibouti, we have 360 days of sunshine as well as extreme weather events that cause flooding during the rare rains of a day. This is due to climate change. These floods have caused a lot of damage and death in the past. The construction of the Friendship Dam has reduced the impact of these heavy rains."
