How can external support help?
• Help to move through peer engagement and dialogue
• Finance implementation of self-development plans and
leadership – should cover the whole process (3-5 years)
• Learning and technical expertise
• A peer coaching approach for organisational development and
capacity enhancement advice, consultants and advisers (for
instance, German RC, Netherlands RC, Finish RC contributing
into Red Crescent development in Central Asia)
• To support as a collective by creating a critical mass for selfdevelopment among al CSOs (best approach when
networking in place – Red Cross Red Crescent)
