Swedish Institute Management Programme Africa Grants

The Swedish Institute Management Programme (SIMP) offers you proven tools and knowledge from experts who can help you to put sustainability at the heart of your strategy and take your leadership to the next level.

The programme is based on Sweden’s prominent position in innovation and sustainable business – and its connection to the global economy.

A core outcome of the programme is for every participant to work with your organisation and implement sustainability strategically.

 You will formulate the actions and plan on the needs of your organisation and its stakeholders.

The programme runs online and at local conference venues between April 2023 – December 2023, including one week in Sweden.

 SIMP offers coaching, interactive workshops and lectures, as well as meetings with representatives from companies and organisations in Sweden. SIMP is a challenging and interactive programme that requires your active participation and contribution. It is not a series of one-way lectures.
