This introductory course provides participants with an understanding and overview of SSG/R, its key principles, actors and contexts within which SSG/R takes place. Drawing on insights from experienced practitioners and practical examples, the course introduces participants to both political and technical aspects of SSG/R and outlines what is meant by a people-centered and holistic approach. 

This course exceeded my expectations and has significantly boosted my confidence in using SSG methodologies. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of SSG.

Exceptionally important course for broader understanding of the SSG/R in global context. Examples of best practices helped a lot to better understand the implications of the concept on local/regional scope.

I found the course easy to follow and well-paced. The information and accompanying documents make it a great resource on the subject. It is also possible to make it over several sessions which is definitely a good feature.
