JITEGEMEA CREDIT SCHEME

A one day training on WaSH financing to enhance the capacity of the organization to strengthen marketing for WaSH products. The purpose of the training was to help the participant understand the concept of Water, sanitation and hygiene, create awareness for the existing market for WaSH products and understand from participants the challenges in marketing the products and likely mitigation.

The training methodology was interactive as the trainers ensured that knowledge was not only disseminated but accurately perceived and understood by the participants. In order to ensure this, trainers engaged participants in discussions and kept the forum open for feedback, queries and suggestions.

These discussions and interactive sessions were supported through participatory planning and group discussions.
