Objective 2: Strengthening the DM capacity of Partners 2. Training: During this reporting period following training have been accomplished as planned. a. Sphere Training Sphere training program has been planned to enhance capacity of the DPNet partners in mitigating effects of natural and anthropogenic hazards and disasters response activities. The present capacity of the DPNet partners organizations is widely deferred in providing the humanitarian aid/support packages. To ensure the maintenance of minimum standards of the humanitarian aid, a common guideline needs to be followed by all the concerned organizations of the humanitarian aid. The sphere handbook is the most relevant one in defining a minimum standard. The sphere manual aims to sensitize the policy makers and the stakeholders at the central level on disaster preparedness and response program in Nepal. It is envisioned the effective implementation of the manual would help to improve the lives of the disaster-affected people. Furthermore, Sphere standard has already been introduced in Nepal but in-depth the knowledge needs to be imparted. Training on sphere standard is important and crucial means in bring uniformity in humanitarian support provided by the different organizations. This training was organized with the aims to familiarize the sphere manual and their importance, to ensure uniformity among the support provided by different humanitarian organizations and to make the support more effective. For the effective implementation of sphere standard, the DPNet Nepal in association with the OXFAM GB Nepal arranged the resource persons from RedR India. The OXFAM GB Nepal provided the technical assistance including facilitators fee and their international travel cost. The rest logistical support including internal residence of both trainees and facilitators, and other training arrangements were arranged through DPNet Nepal. Four-resource persons two Indian (Prasad Savekari and Ajit Phadnis facilitated the course in the first batch training while Vikrant Mahajan replaced Ajit Phadnis in the second batch) and two Nepali nationals (Meghranjani Rai and Rajan Pandey) were mobilized during the training. The sphere handbook (Nepali version), a course CD with the class presentation and relevant reference materials 4
5 such as the emergency handbook and sphere in soft form were also distributed to each participant. Sphere Training at Dhulikhel Venue date and participants: The training was conducted in two batches. The first batch Sphere training was held at Dhulikhel Resort, Dhulikhel from January 2-5, 2007 and second batch at Country Villa, Nagarkot from January 8-11, Altogether 54 trainees were participated (29 in first batch and 25 in second batch) representing fifteen and fourteen different DPNet partners NGOs, INGOs and agencies working in the field of disaster management in first and second batch respectively. Outputs Fifty-four participants from 22 different partner organizations were familiarized with the perspective of Sphere and its minimum standards in five major sectors. The participants also understood the cross cutting themes such as gender, diversity, collaboration, coordination, transparency and inclusion. Moreover, participants were equipped with the Sphere standards and other recent relevant reference materials for humanitarian aid activities. General Observations The participants of both batches appraised the Sphere training program as successful and showed their satisfaction about course content and methods of conduction. Besides, the training truly represents their present needs of disaster management/response practices. Moreover, demand of Sphere training is continuously coming in from our partners. b. Basic First Aid Training Sphere Training at Nagarkot Injuries of various forms and types do occur due to accident or disasters. Preparedness for timely and adequate response is prerequisite to minimize the impact of such occurrence. Acquiring first aid skills could be a valuable aspect of 5
6 preparedness for managing such happenings. The provision of first aid to a victim is a life saving skill and in some cases it is the only way for saving victim/s life at the site of incidence. In this connection DPNet arranged a course of Basic First Aid Training for the members of the DPNet partner organization The main objectives of this training were to build up the capacity of the member organizations to cope up with and to be prepared for probable injuries due to accidents or disasters by providing First Aid skills and knowledge.
