Training is a vital development lever for people and for reducing poverty. It enables people to gain the skills needed to access employment, helps them to become independent and therefore helps to reduce inequality and sustainably improve living conditions. Our focus on vocational training enables us to target people with basic level qualifications and help preserve traditional expertise, which is sometimes coming under threat. This is why BATIK International has chosen to focus on projects centring on training initiatives. The organisation works in the north and south in four different ways.
1. BATIK International has been registered as a training provider since 1999 and has been running a training service for over ten years: analysing training needs and requirements, putting together and designing training plans, defining the methods and resources required, coordinating, monitoring and evaluating training courses, and accreditation procedures.
2. BATIK International runs training courses to build the capacity of disadvantaged people. The organisation’s strength lies in its ability to involve the right individuals or bodies to deliver training that is tailored to a specific target group and to develop teaching partnerships between training providers in the south and north. Batik International acts as a link between beneficiaries and trainers and encourages public, non-profit sector and private sector stakeholders to work together to set up training courses. A hub for projects in France, the Mediterranean countries and Asia, textiles and clothing industry training courses are occupying a growing place and endeavour to promote an ethical approach.
3. BATIK International has organised an innovative training course aiming to train young people from the north in the south via a professional mobility programme. The MOBIL’Asie programme was launched in 2002 with the support of the Paris Region and enables young people from the region with basic level qualifications and manual and creative skills to go on a vocational six-month work placement in Vietnam. The mobility programme helps participants to develop vocational and cross-functional skills and often constitutes a stimulating and decisive phase in the labour market integration process.
4. BATIK International runs capacity building initiatives for civil society organisations in the south and therefore helps to secure the long-term future of projects. These training courses are often an integral part of the projects run by the organisation in the south and tend to focus on project management. BATIK International uses a participatory process to identify the requirements of NGOs in the south wishing to improve the way that they work in order to enhance the quality of the services delivered to beneficiaries.
