Through participating in the online discussions we were able as an organization to learnt a lot.The interactive sharing of experiences from a wide range of resource people was very beneficial to us.We are now assured that whichever information we need for our various projects is just a click away, thanks to New Tactics.
The discussion on conflict resolution could not come at a more appropriate time given that as Kenyans we were grappling with the effects of the Post Electoral Crisis.For us as an organization we are putting together a project on Women and Post election crisis and the tools we will use are from the New Tactics discussions.
The interaction provided us also with an opportunity for experience sharing, we were able to learn what is happening in other parts of the world and incorporate the best practices.The website also gave us an opportunity for visibility, as an organization we do not yet have a website but are now sure so many organizations are aware of our work thanks to the HIV Prevention dialogue and other dialogues in which we have participated in the past.
The discussions have also improved our understanding of human rights issues and deepened our knowledge.
Thanks
