"The value of this course lies as much in the remarkable group of participants as in the excellent materials and organization. It has sharpened my thinking about the mission of my organization and has given me a clearer sense of international developments in the sector. SPNM also gave me the confidence and knowledge to ensure that our mission and medium-term goals are focused and clearly defined."
