Participatory planning workshops

asde promotes goal identification workshops that in a informal, dynamic, and participative way help plan different complex aspects of the institutional work not only in institutions of developed countries but also institutions in developing countries.

 

Participatory project design workshops

These workshops are carried out in situ and use a participatory methodology. They are conducted jointly with all the organizations involved in the project, thus ensuring that the formulation of the project includes exhaustive information on local reality.

asde is an institution specialized in development projects with largely experienced professionals in the NGO cofinancing budget line of the European Commission (B76000 and Bilateral Cooperation B76200). asde also offers technical and financial assistance to international institutions, particularly regarding housing and infrastructure projects.
