Support Programme 2010
Support Programme Strategic Priority:
The Key Focus of the Support Programme in 2011 is to respond to federations’ and unions’ support needs through targeted, proactive support for underresourced unions and those working in vulnerable sectors. To accommodate the increasing demand for strategic support we have scheduled monthly Support Weeks. This ensures systematic planning and the response to as many support requests as possible.

How to access support
Support requests of a national or provincial nature should be made in writing to the Director of Ditsela. A consultative process to jointly assess needs and to develop an appropriate plan of action with time frames and outcomes will follow this. All support requests will be assessed to ensure explicit educational emphasis that will help strengthen the unions and federations and will be evaluated after every engagement to develop useful reports that capture the education lessons.
Ditsela’s Proactive Support Strategy To ensure that a wider group of our constituency are able to access Ditsela resources and support we will continue to pursue a proactive and targeted approach to support especially to under resourced unions organising in especially vulnerable sectors of the economy.
If you need support from Ditsela, please send your request to the Programme Manager, outlining your specific needs. Contact details are 011 331-0430, fax:011 331 0477 or email Sunnyboy@ditsela.org.za
