Participants at the SAFOD Strategic Planning Retreat held in South Africa in November 2014 whose inputs informed the review of the SAFOD programs outlined below, as well as the development of the five-year Strategic Plan itself.

In November 2014, SAFOD held the Strategic Planning Retreat in South Africa as part of a consultative process to seek input the new five-year Strategic Plan for 2015-2019.
