Asian Disaster Preparedness Center will conduct the 4th Regional Training Course on Mainstreaming Disaster Risk Reduction into Local Governance (MDRRG-4) in forthcoming January.
Objectives
The primary objective of the course is to develop a cadre of local government professionals and development partners sensitive to issues posed by the recurrent hazards. The course intends to enhance knowledge and capacity of local urban authorities, associated NGOs and other stakeholders in streamlining disaster risk reduction in urban development. It will create opportunities for mainstreaming risk reduction as a component of urban governance.
The secondary objective of the training is to build the capacity of national training partner institutions, which will make an attempt to institutionalize the capacity building program on this theme at national level. It will also help communities at risk and NGOs to support the governance and participate in creating safer urban communities and sustainable development through DRR.
US$ 1,500 per participant with a registration fee of US$40.
This package is inclusive of training course materials, refreshments and lunch during the course.
The course is targeted at representatives of local government ministries/departments, urban emergency services and planning functions related to risk reduction from PROMISE cities, local government training institutions who can implement the course at a national level, NGOs involved in urban community development initiatives, existing city networks, and private sectors
