The CIFAL Global Network is part of the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR). The Network comprises 14 International Training Centres (CIFALs) and aims to serve as a platform for capacity-building of government authorities and civil society leaders on topics related to sustainable development, as well as on global mandates and goals of the United Nations. Since its inception in 2003, the Network has trained more than 47,000 beneficiaries through over 540 training and knowledge-sharing events (as of December 2014). It reached more than 8,062 beneficiaries from 124 countries in 2014. The acronym CIFAL stands for "International Training Centre for Authorities and Leaders" (French: ‘Centre international de formation des autorités et leaders’ or in Spanish: ‘Centro Internacional de Formación para Autoridades y Lideres’).() Each CIFAL Centre is a hub for capacity building and knowledge sharing between local and regional authorities, national governments, international organisations, the private sector, and civil society. It is an important resource in the United Nations long-term efforts towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. ==Approach== The central purpose of CIFAL’s training programmes is to develop and strengthen human capacities to better respond to development challenges. CIFAL Centres rely on a facilitative approach that aims to: * Facilitate the transfer of knowledge, experiences and best practices amongst government officials, private sector and civil society leaders * Enhance capabilities to effectively perform relevant tasks * Encourage cooperation and the development of multi-stakeholder partnerships * Provide networking opportunities leading to city-to-city collaboration * Contribute to the development of local and national strategies Each of its learning and training activities present a variety of learning resources blending core content, assignments, tasks, assessments, peer-to-peer collaboration, interactive activities, and mentoring. Depending on the needs of the beneficiaries and the objectives of the training, activities are delivered in different formats: face-to-face, virtually, or blended, combining both. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CIFAL」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
