Five years ago I was privileged to start and build up an humanitarian and social organisation called
Caritas Sibolga. It has become a strong local NGO with international network (long term MoU with some international partners). In the first five years of its existence Caritas Sibolga implemented programmes with the value of 6 million Euro. Although it didn't hired the best professionals and consultants, Caritas Sibolga demonstrated the ability to design and implement big scale programmes with local staff, which could compete in quality with that of big INGOs. What was the key to this success? Let find out in an article
Kunci Kesuksesan Caritas Sibolga I published on my Indonesian blog.
