About the Risk Communication and Community Engagement Outbreak Readiness Training in Pakistan
In collaboration with Pakistan-based partners, the Risk Communication and Community Engagement Outbreak Readiness Training is developed and administered by the READY initiative funded by USAID-Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance. Visit our website at www.ready-initiative.org for more information.
The five-day RCCE training will be from February 17 - 21, 2025 in Karachi, Pakistan. Before the in-person training begins, participants will be required to complete two 90-minute online (eLearning) courses on the fundamentals of infectious disease outbreaks and RCCE. The goal of the training is to strengthen RCCE leadership and readiness to prepare for and deliver participatory, community-led responses to large-scale outbreaks in humanitarian settings, and to facilitate behavior change with data-driven communication.
This training is designed for national-level NGOs or small, international NGOs that are operating in Pakistan; government and UN representatives are also encouraged to apply.
Priority audiences include individuals with:
Current or future roles in planning, managing, and/or executing communication, behavior change and/or community engagement readiness and response to large-scale outbreaks in Pakistan.
Experience working in a humanitarian and public health response and motivation to increase capacity in these areas.
Mandatory
Ability to commit to completing two online (eLearning) courses and attending 5 days of in-person sessions
Ability to participate in written and spoken English
The training is free of charge. READY will provide breakfast, tea breaks and lunch for all five days of training. READY has limited funding available to support travel costs for local/national organizations and lodging for anyone traveling from outside of Karachi who needs it. Funding will be considered on an as-needed basis based on requests.
