Capacity building – defined as improving the capabilities and skills of staff employed within a government institution – is an important part of our core services. IGS are experts in capacity building projects with vast experience in working with national institutions such as geological surveys and ministries of mines/minerals.
IGS has decades of combined staff experience in successfully delivering World Bank and other overseas aid-funded projects. We have undertaken capacity building projects all over the world, particularly in Africa and Asia, and most recently have worked on a major DFID-funded project in Afghanistan at the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum and Afghan Geological Survey.
For examples of recent work, please see our project page.
