Development cooperation courses
The PuntoSud Academy aims at strengthening the capacity of Civil Society Organisations, International Organisations and the EU Member States Specialised agencies to manage development cooperation programmes.
Since 2008, we are committed to support their staff working with the European Union, the world’s leading donor of development assistance.
We use our long-lasting expertise in developing and delivering training/eLearning modules and our in-depth knowledge of the EU external aid to provide high quality training programmes focused on the management of EU-funded development projects.
