Description

The aim of the project is to develop the capacity of the Domus Dorpatensis Foundation for Science and Liberal Arts (hereinafter DD) to provide professional training to Estonian NGOs in order to improve their ability to respond to problems for which they are not fully qualified. The program also helps to raise the next generation of NGO activists among high school students thanks to an online elective course (e.g. Edumus School platform). During the project, 4 DD employees follow a comprehensive training program for trainers. The program also develops one freelance training course, one high school online course, and the DD''s internal training system (according to the concept of a learning organization) to ensure the ability to train on new topics in the future as well. With the project, the DD will be able to pilot NGO training in seven or eight NGOs per year (against three before the project) and to provide online courses to 30 or 40 high school youth (against 20 before the project).  The social entrepreneurship revenues earned from these services will allow the training activities to continue after the end of the project.
