Whose project is it? Working in partnership between organisations.

When going into a new country or location it is often at the request of a local organization. This presentation will draw on examples from EARS Incorporated’s audiology projects in Dominican Republic, Fiji, Colombia and Papua New Guinea to discuss the challenges and benefits of working with a local organization at different stages of project development including: what to look for in a partner at the pre-planning stage, to how to work with a partner on project development, challenges and conflicts that may arise in the implementation and how will you manage the handover.

• How to scope out a good partner organization
• benefits and challenges of working with a partner organization
