HICD 2020 Provides Management Training to Georgian Medical Group
Professional trainer, Natia Zedginidze, at the Center for Training and Consultancy (CTC) is currently providing project management training to the Georgian Medical Group (GMG) and its subcontractor HERA in the Georgian capital of Tbilisi. ME&A is implementing this training under the USAID funded HICD 2020 Activity, which supports the Georgian Medical Group with a series of capacity building activities, including trainings in project and financial management, fundraising, and USAID project implementation requirements.
GMG was founded to improve health and protect health-related rights for vulnerable groups through policy changes and community-level actions. It focuses on reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, water, sanitation, hygiene, and pharmaceuticals. Another key part of GMG’s mission is to form partnerships around specific project issues. This approach has allowed GMG to build a strong network of people and organizations, both inside and outside the health sector, which has helped it implement effective strategies based on broad agreement and professional expertise.
ME&A is implementing the Georgia Human and Institutional Capacity Development 2020 Activity (HICD 2020) Task Order contract under USAID’s Human and Institutional Development (HICDpro) IDIQ contract, which USAID awarded to ME&A in November 2013.
