The association 'Kurzeme NGO Center' invites participation in the training cycle 'Leadership Academy in Kurzeme.' These free training sessions are intended for representatives of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and active residents who want to create positive changes in their environment and society.

In a workshop led by Maija Jankovska, the leaders of Kurzeme NGO Center and Leadership Academy, participants will work on planning the common initiative.
