Proposal Writing and Project/Programme Planning Training for Lao Red Cross | 24-27 June 2019 | Vientiane, Lao PDR
24 June , 2019 - 27 June , 2019
As an auxiliary to the Government, Lao Red Cross (LRC) conducts activities within a range of programmes including emergency response, water and sanitation, health, disaster preparedness and risk reduction, livelihoods, first aid, and youth. The devastating flash floods caused by torrential rains in 2016 and the dam collapse in 2018, have demonstrated the importance of coordinated emergency response, at a regional and global level, in dealing with large-scale disasters.
The two-year USAID/OFDA funded project “Red Ready” aims to strengthen LRC’s organizational capacities, readiness and resilience in responding to disasters. As part of the project, LRC headquarters and branch staff will be supported in developing proposal writing skills and enhancing the knowledge of Project/Programme Planning (PPP). The three-day training is expected to support LRC in its upcoming engagement with national, regional and international partners. In addition, the Red Ready Program is also strengthening LRC’s knowledge in statistics and data recording which will complement the management of its operation.
In further promoting regional and international coordination for disaster management and response, LRC will be supported in enhancing its capacities in proposal writing and project/programme planning.
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) will offer a three-day training that focuses on the following:
- Two-day training on effective and comprehensive development of proposal for funding, touching on the key elements of a proposal and writing process, and providing a hands-on writing exercise.
- One-day overview of the key elements that complete the process of project/programme planning.
