Client Testimonial "Thanks for developing our nutrition team within a short time. The TSO advisor lead the team by example. Clear direction and close follow up were given, in both
technical as well as grant management. She was sensitive to program resources and considered carefully how to engage other stakeholders to achieve the goal."

needs within your budget. The advisor was very knowledgeable, has vast experiences from many countries and able to teach bilingually. I would use TSO again
due to their wide experience and flexibility.” Health and WASH program Manager—World Vision
