  • TC-I Sponsored Survey

    The Centre for Development Finance (CDF), which is a part of Institute for Financial Management and Research (IFMR), is conducting a survey on the following questions:

    Ever wonder if all that investment in 'capacity building' for your organization is worth the cost? Or whether all that paperwork you do really contributes to your development goals? Ever ponder why some organizations get funded for years but don't seem to have much impact, while others have no infrastructure or funding to speak of but manage to be incredibly effective?

    To learn more and participate in the survey go here.
