Asia Catalyst

Get Catalyzed!

East and Southeast Asia are changing rapidly. Around the region, new nonprofit organizations are springing up to address urgent health issues, such as the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

To survive and thrive, this first generation of pioneering activists needs basic skills: strategic planning, budgeting, and staff and volunteer management. They also need the ability to document local rights issues and to advocate effectively with local officials, international donors and the United Nations.

Asia Catalyst has a rigorous and systematic approach to coaching local groups in basic survival skills. We work with our local partners one-on-one, in their offices, using tools we have developed that fit their needs. Click here to learn more.

Four days later, we appeared in a People's Daily article about an anti-discrimination campaign by Chinese NGO Tianxia Gong. It seems this is one issue on which all of us can agree.
