Project Development: PRODEV

PRODEV Committee has been set up to support your future canyoning projects. PRODEV is dedicated to associations and affiliated centers (or in affiliation process). Training application requests will be examined on the basis of 12 candidates, minimum (See PRODEV Procedures).

Groups of individuals who will submit their application to the PRODEV Committee must have a sustainable and imminent development of the activity in their country. In order to optimize the application files, relevant provisional budgets and affiliation projects with ICOpro are required.

PRODEV core activity does not aim at supporting individual canyoneers or professionals. Each request must result from associations or centers, and gather high number of individuals.

PRODEV purpose is to create an economical dynamic for professionals through canyoning development.
