| Organizations, both public
and private, profit and non-profit, are the foundations
and framework of society. Strengthening
organizations to effectively meet society's needs is
essential to global sustainability. Effective
organizations have a clear understanding of their
mandates, capabilities and programs, and of how to work
with stakeholders and partners in the public and private
sectors. Organizational development, capacity building and training are integral to virtually all of Agrodev's assignments.
