You will go through six modules learning from UN, civil society, and cross‑sector resource‑mobilization practices and develop a tailored strategy for your own institution or programme. Throughout the course, you will review funding trends, assess your organization’s financial situation and long‑term needs, design a strategy aligned with your organization’s mandate, and learn how to implement and monitor the strategy following the Plan–Do–Check/Act cycle. Along the way, you will explore a wide range of funding approaches—from proposal writing and income‑generating activities to private‑sector partnerships, multi‑donor initiatives, co‑funding mechanisms, philanthropic support, and innovative financing tools. Partnership‑building remains central throughout, supported by insights from experts across the UN System, development banks, the EU, and the private sector.

Successful participants will receive a Certificate of Achievement, awarded upon completion of the final assignment in which you present your resource‑mobilization strategy that will be validated by ITCILO experts. This certificate confirms that you have met all programme requirements, including assignments, knowledge checks, and the final assignment, representing a total learning effort of at least 60 hours. Issued electronically and secured through blockchain technology, the certificate can be easily shared on social media to showcase your ability to design comprehensive resource‑mobilization strategies.
