The participants of the training were the officers and staff from UN-Habitat, local government unit (LGU)-Marawi City and SHFC.
Aside from DNH training, relevant topics on the ‘The Maranao Culture: History, Structure and Social Dynamics’ as well as Islamic Financing were emphasized in order to equip the participants with the effective tools in project implementation.
