1st Hybrid (Online and Face to Face) Training Course on Localizing Disaster Risk Reduction for Anticipatory Action
Description
This course takes off from the past 27 batches of the Community-based Disaster Risk Reduction Course. The two-week course is based on the premise that all disasters are local. This means that it is the local level that bears the brunt of the impacts of disasters. To support localization, better disaster prevention, response and recovery measures must be undertaken to protect communities from disaster impacts and protect institutional and organizational investments in communities.
The course provides participants with the knowledge and skills to develop and empower communities to better prepare for preventing, responding and recovering from disasters. Participants in this course will work on a scenario-based exercise, which will help them to apply the learning when they return to their respective workstations.
Online Phase: July 10-14, 2023 and Face to Face Phase: July 17-21, 2023
Target participants
The course is open for participants from various sectors including local government departments, NGOs, INGOs, UN agencies, IFRC, national emergency response agencies and the private sector. Participants engaged in developing and implementing programs at the community level are strongly encouraged to participate. Participants from policy and senior management levels are welcome if they are keen to learn how CBDRR is operationalized to be able to effectively support efforts.
