The overall purpose of this programme is to contribute to strengthening the conditions for investments in renewable energy to provide modern and sustainable energy systems, including all forms of renewable energy such as solar, wind, hydro, bio (including waste-to-energy) and geothermal energy. In turn this is expected to lead to poverty reduction through increased access to affordable, reliable renewable energy and access to electricity for women and men living in poverty.

The Capacity Development Programme on Renewable Energy aims at creating increased knowledge and capacity of selected organisations and participants about how different energy systems solutions based on renewable energy can be developed at different levels in society, from local communities without network connections to larger plants at national macro level. The participants will share knowledge and networks and work together in Country Teams to develop and implement a common Change Project that will support change processes within the participants own organisations and areas of activity. 

The aim of this Advanced International Training Programme (ITP) is to give an overall perspective of chemicals management, including the advantages and disadvantages of different ways of organising roles and responsibilities through legislation. It is specially designed for people qualified to participate in major reform processes on different levels and employed in ministries and authorities with a mandate to run change processes. 

The programme offers support to enhance, adapt and maintain capacity over time in order for an organisation to define and achieve goals in both the short- and long-term. Participants will learn about the latest developments in their area of work under the supervision of skilled Swedish colleagues and experts, have the opportunity to develop a network of colleagues from other countries and enhance their knowledge of new working methods. The methodology used is based on the assumption that participant’s organisation wish to make changes and are willing to invest its own resources to achieve these changes. 

The ITP “Healthy livestock – safe food” aims to reduce poverty of small holder farmers in East Africa through improved animal health and reduced antimicrobial resistance, with a focus on organisations in the livestock sector from farm to fork.

The overall objective of the programme is to reduce poverty and vulnerability among smallholder farmers. More specifically, the programme addresses how improved health in food producing animals may impact sustainable production of animal derived products, and how this interrelates to reduced usage of antimicrobials as well as safer food products, free from zoonotic pathogens and antimicrobial residues.

The programme is a part of the Swedish International Development Agency’s (Sida) work with capacity and institutional development for low-and middle-income countries in priority areas.

The ITP programme Healthy livestock – safe food is planned and implemented by several Swedish governmental authorities in cooperation: the National Veterinary Institute, the Swedish Board of Agriculture, The National Food Agency and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.

Partner countries are Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.

ICT Regulation - Policy and Practice supports regulatory development activity by providing tools and discussion on how policy making and regulatory practice can meet an ever-changing ICT future. New, diverse and constantly evolving technologies make it important for policy makers and sector regulators to find new ways to achieve good policy making and regulatory practices to safeguard good service and the interest of consumers and authorities.

This program aim to strengthen country capacity for transformation towards an Inclusive Green Economy and in particular in the program countries: Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. This will be achieved through increased knowledge on, and application of, environmental and economic instruments, organizational change, and promoting national systems for Inclusive Green Economy (IGE). The program (2023-2027) is an advanced training with direct applicability in the participants’ daily work. It includes some theoretical training within IGE, practical exercises, project development and support for implementing own change work. The focus is on the use of environmental policy instruments, and specifically economic instruments.

Gender equality is a prerequisite for long term democratic, equitable and sustainable global development, and gender statistics are crucial for global and national follow-up and monitoring of the SDGs. Therefore, Statistics Sweden, in cooperation with Sida, invites statistical producers and strategic users of statistics in Africa to participate in ITP Gender Statistics in order to improve their capacity and skills. 

The Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) organises the training programme with support from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (Swedish EPA) and Luleå University of Technology (LTU). The programme is primarily  offered to staff and management at government authorities tasked with permitting and inspecting mines.

The training presents the science behind management of mine water and mine waste, and integrates several principles equally important to prevent and mitigate environmental impacts: professionalism, transparent processes and a human rights perspective.
The aim is to reduce knowledge gaps between authorities and industry and to make information about mining and the environment readily available to all stakeholders. The training focuses on mine waste and mine water and aims to improve permitting procedures, the quality of inspection and reporting at the participating agencies.

This international training programme (ITP) focuses on land related issues and should be viewed in light of the ability to develop trusted public administration with a clear mandate to enhance impartial, transparent and reliable services to society – a practical implementation of “good land governance” into Applied Land Governance.

This programme aims to give participants new tools and knowledge on how to approach and elevate a settlement towards formal status with increased security of ownership and access to land as a result.

The goal is to increase the capacity of targeted organisations and authorities to prevent and respond to Gender-Based Violence, according to Rule of Law in Albania, Kosovo, Moldova, Montenegro and Ukraine.
