JOB TITLE                                   : FACILITATOR ECB SHELTER TRAINING PILOT (CONSULTANT)
 
DEPARTMENT/PROJECT        : PROGRAM/ECB
 
REPORTS TO                             : ECB TEAM
  
JOB SUMMARY
 
Last
year, CARE International worked in 87 countries supporting 905 poverty-fighting
projects and reaching more than 80 million people. CARE International UK (CIUK)
is one of 12 members of the CARE International confederation. CIUK hosts CARE
International’s Shelter and Reconstruction Team, which provides technical
support for emergency and post-emergency recovery programs.
 
Shelter
is never more important than in times of crisis. For poor vulnerable families,
a house can be their largest asset. The loss of a house leaves them exposed to
ill health, poor security, indignity and poverty. 
 
As part
of the broader ECB initiative CI Shelter Team are designing a sectoral
training. The expected result of the training is that national humanitarian
stakeholders and staff in disaster-vulnerable countries have improved
individual and organisationalcapacity to mount faster, higher quality responses in shelter
interventions.
 
Decision
makers (ACD/CD level) within organisationswho set
strategy, approach and modality of interventions require a basic knowledge of
project management for shelter projects. Without this knowledge it can be a
challenge to produce good quality interventions that meet the needs of the most
vulnerable. Poor shelter projects can easily create conflict or reinforce
existing tensions. 
 
This
course seeks to address this by providing shelter specific training to
generalist managers likely to be managing shelter technical staff. It provides
an overview of the key phases of project management for the various types of
shelter interventions, providing participants with the skills to effectively
support the delivery of shelter programming.
 
The pilot
training will be delivered over three days. Feedback gathered during and after
the pilot will be used to refine the training. The final training package will
be prepared for replication and further delivery. Of the ECB countries
Indonesia chose Shelter as the sector where this training opportunity would be
most beneficial.
 
The
target audience is National and International staff:
·       Managers who are likely to be managing shelter technical staff
·       With experience working for an NGO in emergencies
 
Secondary

WASH staff.
 
Training
objectives:
·       To enable generalist managers to understand the key concepts
required for the project management of a shelter response
·        To increase the number of humanitarian
practitioners able to manage a good quality shelter program
 
The pilot training will be coordinated and managed
by CARE Indonesia with support from CARE UK and ECB team in Indonesia.
