At Think Africa Institute we are the bridge to understanding and working with and within Africa from anywhere in the world. Our roster of experts, clients and services speak to that; but more importantly, we are guided by philosophy that Knowledge is “Created”, “Shared” and can be “ShedSM”.

Facilitation

When you need an independent person to oil difficult conversations, be it Team Building, Staff or Unit Retreats, Change Management, etc, we have to expertise to professionally lead and facilitate to the process.

Past clients to have benefited from our experience: The Abidjan Convention (AbC) of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) in Abidjan; ActionAid Sierra Leone, West Africa Biodiversity and Climate Change (WA-BiCC) of the USAID, Budget Advocacy Network of Sierra Leone (BAN-SL), among others.

Coaching

We coach and mentor individuals and organisations by standing with them and helping them grow in decision-making, personnel growth and targeted capacity development.

We have had the pleasure of coaching and mentoring organisations and individuals within those organisations from Liberia and Sierra Leone; NMJD (Sierra Leone), CARKAP, CARL, Foundation for Community Initiatives (Liberia), Rural Human Rights Activists Programme (RHRAP), Liberia, among others have been clients.

Training

We believe training must be planned and delivered. At TAI, we take the chore out of our training make it both a fun and learning atmosphere.

Our trainings are hinged on three philosophies:

Create Knowledge: We believe knowledge is created and every training we host MUST create knowledge.
Share Knowledge: We believe KNOWLEDGE must be SHARED. Our training MUST lead to that.
ShedSM Knowledge: We believe knowledge can be “Shed” – that you leave old unusable knowledge at the end of each session and day.
