Negotiating Health Development, Leadership Training

MLI hosted the Negotiating Health Development Leadership Training in Kathmandu, Nepal for the senior team from the Ministry of Health and Population (MOHP). The workshop, which took place from September 21-23, 2009 and was facilitated by CMPartners, imbued participants with the leading theory, tools and techniques in the fields of negotiation, conflict management and communication with an emphasis on the practical application of intellectual technology in their everyday lives at the MOHP.  The key documents of the training program were all translated into Nepali so that they could be used by Ministry staff after the training..  The workshop provided participants with the opportunity to engage in individual and team negotiations and discussions, one-on-one with the CMParterns team and in groups using multi-party, multi-issue case studies. 

A key resource for this MLI sponsored leadership training is the CMPartners and WHO publication, Negotiating Health Development: A Guide for Practitioners. This booklet is designed to be used at any stage in the health development process by anyone who may want to influence some aspect of that process.  This book was translated from English into Nepali for the leadership training and a link to the Nepali version of the book will soon be available.
