On March 16th and 17th, 2023, the Ministry of Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs (MCRA) organized a two-day workshop for its staff. The workshop, which was conducted by the Human Resource Directorate and the Policy Planning Budget Monitoring and Evaluation Unit of the Ministry, aimed to enhance staff skillsets and improve the overall productivity of the Ministry.

Miss Fati Lily Soale, Acting Chief Director for the MCRA, emphasized the need for staff to invest in upgrading their skills to advance their careers. The Ministry intends to invest significantly in building staff capacity this year, which will not only boost individual confidence but also increase productivity.

During the training, resource persons provided staff with in-depth knowledge on report writing, the standard report format, and how to generate funds internally, among other pertinent topics. The staff also participated in focused group discussions, which provided an opportunity for them to collaborate and share ideas.

Miss Soale expressed her confidence that the staff would be able to prepare detailed reports that accurately reflect their work following the training. Mr. Evans Habadah, Director for Human Resource Management at MCRA, stated that the purpose of the workshop was to ensure that the Ministry had a standard reporting format that included all relevant details about its activities. He emphasized that a good report should be comprehensive and easy to understand, even in the absence of the author.

The Ministry of Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs is committed to building the capacity of its staff to enable them to contribute effectively to the achievement of the Ministry’s mandate.
