Turning knowledge into decisions and lasting impact.

The assignment delivered by Sankore Institute was a decisive step in our efforts to mobilise the Central African diaspora. Through rigorous methodology, a participatory approach and an excellent understanding of development issues, the team produced a high-quality mapping of diaspora skills and a structured proposal for a financing mechanism through a Diaspora Investment Fund. The deliverables now provide a strategic foundation for strengthening the diaspora's engagement in the economic and social development of the Central African Republic. We commend Sankore Institute's professionalism, availability and commitment throughout the assignment.

Sankore Institute's support enabled the Municipality of Bossangoa to take a major step forward in its local development process. Through an inclusive approach involving local authorities, technical services, community leaders and residents, our municipality now has a Local Development Plan (PDL), a Resource Mobilisation Strategy and management tools adapted to our realities. These documents provide a real roadmap for guiding investment, strengthening local governance and mobilising the resources needed to implement our development priorities. We particularly value the technical quality of the work, the Sankore Institute teams' attentive approach and their commitment to transferring lasting skills to local actors.

The assignment delivered by Sankore Institute to map the skills of the Central African diaspora and design a Diaspora Investment Fund made a significant contribution to our strategic vision of mobilising the diaspora for national development. The methodological approach, based on broad stakeholder consultation, rigorous data analysis and a thorough understanding of institutional issues, produced high-quality deliverables that fully met our department's expectations. The assignment's results provide a strategic foundation for strengthening the diaspora's engagement, making use of its skills, encouraging productive investment and developing innovative financing mechanisms for the Central African Republic's development. We commend the professionalism, availability and technical quality of Sankore Institute's experts, whose support was decisive in the assignment's success.

The development of the Local Development Plan (PDL) and Resource Mobilisation Strategy for the Municipality of Bossangoa marked an important step in strengthening local development planning in our region. Through this assignment, Sankore Institute demonstrated a high level of professionalism, strong technical expertise and a thorough command of territorial planning approaches. The team implemented a rigorous, participatory and inclusive methodology, using modern data-collection and analysis tools, in-depth territorial assessments, community consultations, participatory workshops and evidence-based planning. This approach made it possible to identify the municipality's priority needs precisely, define a shared development vision and develop realistic, coherent planning tools that local authorities can use directly. Today, the Municipality of Bossangoa has, for the first time, a Local Development Plan and a Resource Mobilisation Strategy that provide a real roadmap for guiding investment, mobilising partners and strengthening local governance. I commend the quality of the work, compliance with contractual deadlines, the experts' availability and their ability to transfer skills to local actors. Sankore Institute stands out as a trusted technical partner for supporting local authorities in their sustainable development efforts.

This training helped me understand the importance of having a robust technical system for monitoring, evaluation and learning within KORA FILM. Establishing a structured data-collection and management system opens up new opportunities to improve the quality of our work. As a MEAL Officer, I am convinced that this approach will enable us to turn our data into strategic knowledge, strengthen the credibility of our actions and better communicate our projects' results and impact to our partners.

The collaboration between the Fonds d'Appui aux Moteurs du Changement (FAMOC) and Sankore Institute was characterised by exemplary professionalism and high technical quality. The training sessions were designed and delivered through a participatory approach combining theoretical input, practical exercises and case studies adapted to the realities of beneficiary organisations. The methodological tools developed and exchanges with the experts enabled participants to strengthen their skills in project management, monitoring and evaluation, learning and documentation management. The very positive feedback from beneficiaries demonstrates the relevance of this training and its contribution to strengthening the capacities of organisations supported by FAMOC. Sankore Institute proved to be a competent technical partner, able to provide solutions adapted to its partners' needs and produce high-quality results.
