Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies Training of Trainers for Europe

Summary: INEE is organising a Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies Training of Trainers (TOT) Workshop for Europe, co-hosted by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), Save the Children Denmark, the Refugee Education Trust (RET), UNHCR and UNICEF. This TOT will involve experienced trainers from countries in the region.

 

The InterAgency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE) is pleased to begin 2006 with this ‘call’ for trainers to submit applications for the Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies Training of Trainers (TOT) Workshop for Europe.

This TOT workshop will be held from March 15-17, 2006 in Geneva, Switzerland and is being co-hosted by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), Save the Children Denmark, the Refugee Education Trust (RET), UNHCR and UNICEF.

This TOT will involve experienced trainers (women and men) from countries in the region: Albania, Andorra, Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, San Marino, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom. Application details are below (and attached).

This INEE Minimum Standards TOT workshop for Europe will be the fourth in a series of several regional TOTs (Anglophone Africa, Francophone Africa, South Asia, Southeast and East Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, North America, and Europe) that will be carried out in 2006.

The INEE Minimum Standards TOTs will train approximately 25 education and humanitarian trainers in each region over three days to apply the INEE Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies, Chronic Crises and Early Reconstruction.

The goal of the TOT process is to create a cadre of trainers based in regional capitals who will use training and other organisational and individual learning strategies to institutionalise the Minimum Standards within their agencies. As such, trainers are required to conduct a minimum of 2 local, national or regional trainings on the Minimum Standards in the 12 months after the INEE Minimum Standards TOT workshop.

The TOT workshops will directly strengthen the capacity of global, regional, national and local level humanitarian response, education and protection workers and networks, equipping them to provide the psychosocial and physical protection that quality education in emergencies can afford to communities in crisis and the coordinated, holistic response needed to lay a solid and sound basis for post-conflict and disaster reconstruction.
