The Global Facilitator Training is an innovative hybrid programme designed to empower facilitators and trainers to operate effectively in international and multicultural contexts. The training begins with a creative Sprint (Day 1) - a collaborative design process where participants co-create the Global Facilitator Profile, defining the skills, values, and mindset that characterize global excellence in facilitation. Building on the outcomes of this creative phase, participants advance into the Facilitator Certification Training (Day 2,3,4) an advanced learning pathway that integrates high-level facilitation skills with a strong emphasis on social justice, development cooperation principles, and emotional intelligence, coaching models, intercultural facilitation and inclusion.
