Structure
The duration of the training is one year. Over this period, the course will be divided into three different phases.
Phase I: Strategizing and partnership engagement
In order to have knowledge of the landscape of ethical investments, a desk-research needs to be executed. Current ethical investment portfolios will be assessed, measures shall be studied and the actions plans of participants assessed with regard to their status and needs, noting the percentage of ethical investments out of the total investment portfolio of each Church or religious organisations. They will be stimulated to develop, and/or modify concrete investment projects to be presented at the Ethical Investment Summit in March/April 2019.
Phase II: Ethical Investment Summit
During this event, the attracting of investors, as well as the capacity-building of Churches and Religious Organisations, will come together. Investors and development agencies will be brought together to open up to ethical investments in Churches and Religious Organisations in their countries. This summit, to be seen as a market and exhibition space will be a place where concrete projects are showcased and pitched to investors and development agencies. The summit will be a place of networking, innovation and negotiation.
Phase III: Follow up and evaluation
The effectiveness of the programme will be measured through several indicators. The number of investments deals made, and the proportion of ethical investments in investment portfolios will be compared with the baseline study undertaken at the beginning of the course. An evaluation survey will be distributed after every activity, which will indicate results and means of improvement.
Teaching Methods
The training format will be delivered through off-site interactive workshops. The participants will be divided into small groups.
