CHANGE PROJECTS

The change project is a process where good governance principles are both goals to achieve and tools to implement positive change in both the short and long term. Change projects have been vital parts of the ITP 308 and the aim is to develop solutions to current challenges where the participants are active.

The change project in ITP308 is:

1. formulated and proposed by individuals or an organization,
2. refined and structured during the online training,
3. implemented by the participants during 10 months of project work,
4. supported by a mentor,
5. established in the organisation’s processes and procedures,
6. reported and evaluated at a regional conference,
7. built upon and sustained in coming trainings.
