LCN Secretariat develops strategies for the year

The Lesotho Council of Non-Governmental Organizations (LCN) Secretariat meets in Teyateyaneng for a three day briefing from January 7 to 9 to plan a strategy to follow this year in order to help the organisation work to its full potential.

LCN Information Officer Miss Thandiwe Solwandle said the meeting, to be held at the Blue Mountain Inn in the town, would develop strategic objectives for the new year in accordance with the needs and aspirations of member NGO's and the societies within which they operate.

Departmental heads responsible for the various divisions, including democracy and human management; poverty reduction dialogue; agriculture; environment and natural resources; resource mobilization and financial management unit are expected to present their operational plans for the year, she said.

The meeting will also discuss a report from the NGO Week celebrated late last year, where LCN members  presented plans for successfully implementing their various missions and visions, Miss Solwandle said.
