As part of its efforts to strengthen the capacity of coalition members and learning communities to influence educational policies and practices and respond to local priorities, the Teacher Creativity Center is announcing its desire to contract a specialized trainer or consulting firm to implement a training course titled "Local Advocacy, Community Mobilization, Resource Mobilization, and Accountability" as part of the "Voices for Rights and Community Cohesion" project.
