CZI | Movement & Capacity Building Opportunities
The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is committed to helping you scale change faster. We do this through grants, technology and capacity building. With weekly trainings and expert advising we support the CZI community to grow key capacities to unlock greater impact over the long-term.
Our trainings span a wide range of capacity building topics. Each live session is 90-minutes and includes time for Q+A.
Below you can sign-up for upcoming trainings. You can also opt-in to receive monthly invitations about these sessions here.
Past sessions are currently available via our Wistia page. We upload past session recordings within two weeks after they have taken place.
