On behalf of NCDO, (National Commission for International Cooperation and Sustainable Development), Sondela has developed four pre-departure course themes based on needs and input from sending organisations. These four themes have been developed in consultation with specialists working in the field. Their development has been partially funded by The Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport.
Sending organisations may incorporate these themes into existing pre-departure courses.
The following four themes have been developed:
- Sport and Development Cooperation
- Sport and Health
- Sport and Trauma
- Sport and Movement for Persons with a disability
The themes are presented in a handbook. At the moment there is a Dutch version only. For more information, please contact Sondela.
"The selection day, pre-departure training and information day were all very well prepared by Sondela. Pleasant cooperation, professional workshop, high level of interaction and accurate evaluation."
