The Core Group serves as a board for Train4Dev, a network of learning experts from donor agencies and multilateral organizations that are working in international development. It includes institutions that have organized the network’s annual meeting or that will do so in the future; typically, this event is organized jointly by two Train4Dev members. The CEF will be one of the organizers of the annual meeting in 2015.
Participating also offers the CEF an opportunity to more intensively build our own capacity, as we will be able to learn from the policy and practice of other donors and training institutions. CEF Deputy Director Ms. Jana Repanšek attended a meeting on January 15-16, 2013, hosted in Vienna by the Austrian Development Agency, where the CEF began participating in the Core Group.
