Workshops & Training

I conduct workshops and training on Theory of Change, Storytelling and Gender Equality through Sports. Participants are often experts from ngos, entrepreneurs or youth.

“Inemarie conducted a 2-hour workshop in which she showed what a Theory of Change is and how we can use it in practice. We walked out of the workshop-room with a practical tool that we can use immediately.” Jorien van der Laan (Senior researcher Hogeschool van Amsterdam) at LinkedIn
