International Training Programmes - Sida


In 2007, Sida conduct some 90 training programmes financed by both global and regional allocations

The aim is to contribute to capacity development and processes of change in partner countries and other developing countries by offering key persons training programmes in subject areas given priority in Swedish development cooperation, in which Swedish expertise is in demand, and in which use is made of experience from countries at different stages of development.

Examples of areas are trade and industry, democracy and human rights, the environment and infrastructure.

Sida’s international training programmes – each with 20–30 participants – have a duration of three to eight weeks and are held in the English language. The programmes are open to candidates from lower and lower-middle income developing countries. Training programmes are designed for experienced executives in middle and top management positions in their respective organisations. Minimum qualifications are a university degree and relevant working experience.

Programme administration, including the employment of lecturers, premises, accommodation for participants etc is delegated to the appointed programme organiser that may come from either the public or the private sector, for example a government agency, a university or a consultancy company.

Lund University Education  is one of the programme organisers appointed by Sida.
