Consultancy for training of trainers for CBR supervisors/man

Given the many restrictions on its physical and economic means, the unstable political situation and a lack of centralized political authority, the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) has only very limited capacity to deliver social services or enforce existing legislation. This affects the estimated 308,000  persons with disabilities (PWDs) living in the State of Palestine disproportionately, limiting their scarce access to benefits and basic services. In the Gaza Strip, controlled by the de facto authorities and out of any influence by the PNA, ongoing conflict and poverty are steadily increasing the risk of disability and are having a negative impact on the availability, access, quality and sustainability of services. The situation has worsened since June 2007, as PWDs face even harsher consequences than the average population when confronted with the Government of Israel policy to enforce a blockade on the Gaza – Israeli border and to strictly limit the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza – including for medical reasons. 

Handicap International (HI) started its work in Palestine in 1996, and has been working continuously in the West Bank since that time and in the Gaza Strip since 2002. The proposed action builds on the experiences and lessons learned from the AC 3 project in the West Bank and on a number of accesses to services projects implemented in Gaza.

Within the framework of the current project “Multi-stakeholder Initiatives Towards more Effective Response to Persons with Disabilities Needs, and Demands in the State of Palestine ” and “Fostering Multi-stakeholders Mobilisation for the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in their Community in Marginalized Areas of oPt” Project”  and in order to reach the projects’ objective, a series of training modules will be developed  based on the needs assessment of the Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) managers, and recommendations from HI’s CBR consultant in the aim to build capacity for CBR managers/ team leaders / supervisors of two governorates in the West Bank (Nablus and Hebron). The training series /modules shall cover two main work-packages. First, training on communication and presentation skills.
