ANIMA Investment Network has been training economic development agencies in the Euro-Mediterranean area since 2002. Its training activities are now extended geographically to Europe, the Middle East and Africa region and are addressed to all development actors.

Approved as a training organisation in France, the country in which its Secretariat is located, the ANIMA network supports economic development actors to deal with changes in their environment through the acquisition of skills and the creation of new professions in various key areas. Most of the training courses aim at promoting sustainable investment, private sector development and international cooperation.
