22. Top 6 Lessons There are many local NGOs keen to collaborate with overseas organisations Even trivial activity requires local influencing networks Local networks with influence are critical for smooth implementation of any future 4 Peace of Mind activity 4 Peace of Mind should focus on short term projects only – completion in under 3 months. Success of long term projects is very much dependent on collaborating with organisations recognised by the government 4 Peace of Mind activity overseas requires resources. These should be discussed and agreed prior to future missions Humanitarian work is not easy – you must have the right mind set
