Hygiene & Sanitation Promotion for Emergency contexts - Online Certificate Course
Mon, 29 Apr 2024 01:32:28 +0000
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) related diseases contribute to high mortality and morbidity rates in emergency and post-emergency situations. Even in the absence of an emergency, diarrhoea kills over 1,300 children per day worldwide (WHO and UNICEF, 2019). During protracted war and conflict in particular diarrhoeal diseases can often kill more people than the conflict itself. Therefore, hygiene and sanitation promotion will go a great way in curbing the cases of diarrhoea and reducing its impact in terms of morbidity and mortality among populations in emergencies.
Hygiene and Sanitation Promotion is the centerpiece for a successful WASH intervention in emergency contexts. Effective hygiene and sanitation promotion is based on dialogue and interaction with affected communities; working in partnership with them forms the basis for successful and accountable programming.
Better emergency response in public health is achieved through better preparedness. Such preparedness is the result of targeted capacity building and knowledge development by governments, humanitarian agencies, local and civil society organizations, communities and individuals to anticipate and respond effectively towards emergency situations. It is upon this premise that IDEAL Public Health and Development Consultancy (IPHDC) has organized a training to build the capacity of key humanitarian actors on effective hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergencies.
Who should attend this training?
Programme staff of humanitarian and development agencies (UN, government and non-governmental agencies) including project managers, officers and assistants working in the WASH sector.
What are the key aspects of the training?
- Concepts of hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergency settings;
- Key hygiene and sanitation standards and monitoring indicators in emergencies (e.g. SPHERE standards);
- Tools and methods for hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergencies;
- Planning, Implementation, Monitoring and Evaluation of hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergencies;
- Practical facilitation skills through simulation activities.
What are the main training objectives?
The following objectives are planned to be achieved by the end of the training:
- To build the capacity of trainees to impart knowledge to communities in emergency situations on prevention of diarrhoeal diseases and other WASH-related diseases;
- To equip trainees with practical skills for planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluation of hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergency contexts;
- To introduce trainees to key hygiene and sanitation standards and monitoring indicators in emergencies (e.g. SPHERE);
- To equip trainees with community mobilization skills for hygiene and sanitation promotion in emergency setting.
What learning approach and language will be used in the training?
The training method of delivery will consist of interactive webinar sessions, videos, articles, reference materials, quizzes and assessments.
The entire training will be facilitated in English.

Organization Development and Systems Strengthening (ODSS)
Thu, 25 Apr 2024 03:32:35 +0000
Humanitarian and development agencies play a very significant role in addressing the gaps in service delivery at community level. However, studies have shown that most of these agencies often lack requisite technical, financial and managerial capacity to effectively address these challenges. This has resulted in poor utilization of resources and consequently low impact from their interventions among target communities.
In order to bridge the prevalent institutional and programming capacity gaps of humanitarian and development agencies, IDEAL Public Health and Development Consultancy (IPHDC) has organized a five-day training on Organization Development and Systems Strengthening (ODSS). This approach is globally applied by funding agencies, intermediary organizations, capacity-building consultants and civil society organizations (CSOs).
What is the main training objective?
To strengthen institutional and programming capacity of humanitarian and development agencies for greater impact of their actions.
When is the training?
13th to 17th May 2024
Who should attend this training?
Administrators of development and humanitarian agencies, program managers, project managers and officers.

- Monitoring and Evaluation.
What learning approach and language will be used in the training?

Taller de especialización virtual «Programas de transferencias monetarias y protección: Perspectivas y experiencias»
Wed, 24 Apr 2024 03:12:09 +0000
El próximo 16 de mayo a las 16.00H (UTC+2) | 9.00H (UTC-5) celebramos el seminario virtual «Programas de transferencias monetarias y protección: Perspectivas y experiencias».
El uso de programas de transferencias monetarias (PTM) humanitarios ya representa el 20% del total de la asistencia humanitaria global. En los últimos años, los actores que están usando PTM para fines de protección han producido una plétora de evidencia, guías y herramientas sobe los PTM y protección. Sin embargo, el uso de PTM para fines de protección es el sector que menos reporta usarlos. Hay una brecha notable entre la aplicación de los recursos disponibles y la practica en respuesta humanitaria.
Con el propósito de incrementar el conocimiento de buenas prácticas, crear espacios de intercambio y mejorar la calidad de los PTM para protección, la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID), el Instituto de Estudios sobre Conflictos y Acción Humanitaria (IECAH), el Task Team de Cash para Protección del Clúster Global de Protección y la CALP Network convoca este taller sobre PTM y Protección.
El taller tiene un carácter práctico y alternará las presentaciones teóricas con la exposición de casos prácticos en grupos reducidos en los cuales se conocerán experiencias de diversas instituciones (ONG y organismos internacionales). El taller se facilitará en línea a través de la plataforma Microsoft Teams.
Adicionalmente se compartirán una serie de lecturas recomendadas para orientar sobre la temática del taller a las personas seleccionadas.

Global Campus online course: "Authoring Justice"
Tue, 23 Apr 2024 02:16:56 +0000
The Global Campus of Human Rights is proud to launch its first-ever specialised online course called “Authoring Justice”. Designed for those eager to enrich their craft and embark on the journey of writing a book or long-form work, this course is for prospective authors who are keen on writing non-fiction narrative centered on a variety of human rights topics: from climate justice to gender equality; from racial justice to social justice at large.
Lecturers and experts
Under the guidance of Professor Andrew Leon Hanna, award winning author of 25 Million Sparks: The Untold Story of Refugee Entrepreneurs (Cambridge University Press), participants will learn about the principles of narrative non-fiction writing, developing their own Capstone Project (~2,000-word piece) and receiving tailored personal feedback to nurture their ideas. Through 5 live webinars they will also hear from a dynamic, diverse group of international literary leaders – authors as well as publishers - who will share their invaluable wisdom, firsthand experiences and writing tips.
Confirmed guests so far include Justice Albie Sachs, renowned freedom fighter and former Judge on the Constitutional Court of South Africa; writer, campaigner and GCA alumna Jemma Neville; and Joel Rickett, Managing Director of Ebury Publishing, the non-fiction publisher at Penguin Random House.
INTERESTED IN JOINING?
The course, open to participants from diverse backgrounds, nationalities and experiences, is tailored to resonate with all those who seek to harness the power of the written word for profound social change. We will actively encourage creative brainstorming and support sharing feedback among participants.
