SUMMARY:CCST Thailand’s Final Evaluation of School Based Disaster Risk Reduction Program | 27 November – 2 December 2017 | Myanmar
DESCRIPTION:The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) Country Cluster Support Team in Thailand conducted a final evaluation on the School Based Disaster Risk Reduction (SBDRR) program in Myanmar during 27 November – 2 December 2017. \nMyanmar Red Cross Society (MRCS) started to implement the SBDRR program in 2012. MRCS received the funding from the Chinese Red Cross (Hong Kong Branch) through the IFRC to implement the SBDRR project in eight schools as a pilot project in three townships — Kyauktan\, Thakeda\, and Hlaing Tharyar — from 2015 to December 2017. The project objective is to integrate and apply the multi-spectral approach to school safety by addressing issues related to multi-hazards and their impacts through ensuring that both disaster management and health concerns are equally addressed while implementing the SBDRR initiatives to raise the resilience levels among school-going children\, teachers\, parents\, and communities\, in order for them to prepare for known threats\, act preventively\, and respond effectively in times of need. \nThe purpose of the evaluation is to draw lessons that will be useful for the improvement of the existing and future program implementation. Additionally\, the National Societies (NSs) in the region will benefit from the knowledge sharing\, and mainstreaming of similar components into their long-term initiatives. \nAs a result of the evaluation\, the project has fulfilled the requirement of all stakeholders and beneficiaries. The facility improvement activity has opened the door for good cooperation on other components. The training content is relevant to the local context and disaster encountered. The improvement on health promotion particularly the personal hygiene and first aid is clearly seen. The good cooperation among stakeholder is also observed. Moreover\, this project has strengthened better cooperation among schools and other organisation which could promote sustainability of the project and may lead to interventions in other schools. \nIn this connection\, the IFRC and Myanmar Red Cross Society convey our appreciation to the Chinese Red Cross (Hong Kong Branch) for giving a great opportunity through its funding to IFRC and MRCS in implementing this project. \nA first aid competition among schools.

SUMMARY:Cambodian Red Cross Discusses Safe Migration With IFRC | 28 November – 1 December 2017 | Cambodia
DESCRIPTION:The CRC representatives met with Helen Brunt\, IFRC Senior Migration Officer\, from 28 November to 1 December 2017 to discuss on migration issues. The meeting was aimed to i) discuss AoF7: Migration with leadership\, staff\, and volunteers of CRC\, including scope for potential IFRC support and National Society peer-to-peer exchanges\, ii) meet with key local authorities in Preah Vihear Province and support CRC in their auxiliary role and relationship with the Cambodian Government\, and iii) learn more about CRC’s Restoring Family Links (RFL) and ‘safe migration’ awareness-raising activities. \nThe visit provided IFRC a unique opportunity to experience first-hand activities conducted by CRC related to migration. Since the start of 2017\, ‘Safe migration’ messaging has been included in awareness-raising activities primarily focused on RFL and ‘safer rural communities’ in Preah Vihear Province which borders Sisaket Province in Thailand – an initiative supported by ICRC. \nThis mission to Cambodia also provided the opportunity to meet with leadership of CRC and share updates on IFRC’s Global and Regional Migration Strategies and plans\, as well a meet with local government officials and introduce the RCRC Movement’s humanitarian mandate in relation to migration and cross-border movements of people in the Mekong region.

SUMMARY:Youth in School Safety (YSS) Training of Facilitators | 2-5 December 2017 | Brunei Darussalam
DESCRIPTION:Comprehensive School Safety has been a priority in DRR in Asia since 2006 with the launch of the ISDR global campaign on Safer Schools. It has been an important part of DRR in the education sector\, addressing the risk of children in schools and community contexts. Global Comprehensive School Safety Framework requires children and youths to play a specific role in their school safety by guiding teachers and parents to join the school safety in an effective way. \n“Youth in School Safety” (YSS) facilitators’ training was designed for youth empowerment at schools to strengthen the bonds between school children and Red Cross youths\, teachers and parents in their specific roles in school safety by equipping them with basic knowledge and skills for School Based Disaster Risk Reduction. \nThe training methodology with a participant-centred\, experiential learning approach relies on a non-cognitive methodology\, meaning those feelings\, experience\, or the physical body\, rather than intellectual analysis adopted from Youth as Agents of Behavioural Change (YABC) toolkits. It supports youth to analyse the School based Risk which is not only about the disaster but all comprehensive risks such as school bulling\, violence\, school hygiene and road accident and gain a knowledge and put them in practice by addressing/identifying specific gaps/issues and their root causes in their existing knowledge and practice\, giving all possible solutions to such issues by their own\, through scenario based games\, role-plays\, simulation and visualization exercises. In a second phase\, Children and youths share experiences with their peers and reflect together and make a ‘from their heart to their mind’ learning journey to become ethical leaders for School Safety. \nThe training was organized by Brunei Darussalam Red Crescent (BDRC) in a close coordination with the Ministry of Education in an aim to expand this programme to all schools over the country. It was conducted on 2-5 December 2017 in Brunei Darussalam\, with the participation of 16 persons (13 female and 3 male). \nThe event was covered on the Brunei newspaper (Spectrum) \nAnother coverage on the training by a Brunei newspaper \n  \nFor more information\, see the following documents: \n\ntraining report\nannex 1 (action plan of facilitators) \nannex 2 A (group 1) \nannex 2 B (group 2)

SUMMARY:Gender and Diversity Approaches to Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment Training | 4-8 December 2017 | Kampong Chhnang | Cambodia
DESCRIPTION:Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (VCA) is a key assessment process used by the Cambodian Red Cross (CRC) and some of its branches for participatory community assessments. The VCA process allows the CRC to understand people’s exposure to and the needed capacity to be resilient to natural hazards. The VCA also enables local priorities to be identified and appropriate action taken to reduce communities’ risk to disasters. It eventually assists in the design and development of programs\, drawing on sustainable solutions from within the community. \n  \nObjectives \n\nTo assess risks and hazards facing communities and the capacities they have for dealing with them; involve communities\, local authorities\, and humanitarian and development organizations in the assessment from the outset.\nTo draw up action plans to prepare for and respond to the identified risks\nTo identify risk-reduction activities to prevent or lessen the effects of expected hazards\, risks and vulnerabilities.\n\n \n \n \n \nThere were 19 participants (10 males and 9 females) from 18 Cambodian Red Cross Provincial Branches. Participants in the training came from a variety of professional background\, including from disaster management\, health first-aider\, and youth adviser. \nSupporting documents: \n\nConcept note\nAgenda\nReport

SUMMARY:Trainings of Trainers on Disaster Law | 4-8 December 2017 | Viet Nam
DESCRIPTION:Disaster Law disseminations continue in Viet Nam  \nDisaster Law Training of Trainers in Can Tho city\, Can Tho Province. Photo by: VNRC HQs \nTraining of Trainers on Disaster Law in Quy Nhon\, Binh Dinh Province. Photo by VNRC HQs \nIn December 2017\, the Viet Nam Red Cross continued to disseminate disaster law to local-level stakeholders and communities through two trainings of trainers held in Can Tho Province in the Mekong Delta on 4-5 December and in Binh Dinh Province (Central Viet Nam) on 7-8 December. The objective of the trainings was to train a pool of Disaster Law facilitators\, based on a “fun and participatory” methodology to make disaster law topics accessible to communities. \nThe training included sessions on disaster law and Vietnam Red Cross law under the tagline of “Know Your Rights\, Roles and Responsibilities in Disaster Management.” Participants joined in role-playing exercises and games\, including a walk-through scenario developed for the Vietnam context and a jeopardy-style quiz. Lively discussions\, laughter and acting talents broke out in the room. \nThese trainings are part of a wider initiative of the IFRC to support Disaster Law disseminations in Southeast Asia\, with funding support from Canadian Government and the Canadian Red Cross. It is expected that the trained participants will roll-out the training modules in their communities\, thus contributing to an increase in the general knowledge of the population related to disasters and risk reduction.

SUMMARY:Regional Lessons Learned Workshop on DIPECHO Actions in Southeast Asia | 7-8 December 2017 | Bangkok\, Thailand
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nThe European Commission’s department for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) has been contributing and investing in DRR and preparedness projects over the last decades both in terms of funding and activities. DG ECHO initiated DIPECHO (Disaster Preparedness ECHO) programme in 1996 with the key goal to increase communities’ resilience and reduce their vulnerability. In turn\, communities at risk could be better prepared for and protect themselves against various shocks and stresses\, including disasters triggered by natural hazards\, conflict\, economic crisis etc. \nOver the past 20 years\, support given by DIPECHO has generated significant impacts in disaster risk reduction and in community-based disaster risk reduction (CBDRR) which resulted in the protection of lives and livelihoods by helping communities and institutions to be better prepared to face disaster risks while promoting disaster preparedness in national and regional frameworks and agendas. \nThe impact of disasters has changed in Southeast Asia in the past few decades. DIPECHO partners\, local community\, civil society organizations (CSOs)\, and national and sub-national governments\, including regional institutions have developed various coping capacities. As a result of DIPECHO’s support\, significant achievements have been made in disaster risk reduction (DRR) in Southeast Asia in the past 20 years. In this backdrop\, a study has been developed to capture the extent of DIPECHO contributions in the evolution of DRR in the region which draws out good practices and achievements as well as challenges and key lessons learned. The study seeks to provide concrete recommendations for future DRR on how various players can continue to improve coping capacity in the government\, CSOs\, and at the local level\, in-line with regional and global frameworks such as the new AADMER Work Plan and in support for the implementation of the Sendai Framework. The study will be presented during this proposed Regional Lessons Learned Workshop of ECHO Partners to be held on 7 to 8 December 2017 in Bangkok\, Thailand. \n  \nThe workshop is expected to generate 2 key outcomes: \n\nOutcome 1: Final list of good practices and achievements as well as related challenges\, lessons and gaps in Southeast Asia confirmed and verified by partners.\nOutcome 2: Documentation of the recommendations to build on DRR in Southeast Asia\, which includes priority actions\, advocacy messages and strategies to enhance the investment in DRR in the region.\n\n  \nView and download the supporting documents: \n\nConcept note\nRegistration form\nAgenda\nParticipant list\nPractical information for the participants\nStudy on two decades of DIPECHO contributions to DRR in Southeast Asia report [pre-final version]\nAnnex of the Study on the two decades of DIPECHO contributions to DRR in Southeast Asia report [[pre-final version]\n\n  \nFor a more interactive page\, click here

SUMMARY:Violence Prevention Integration into CBHFA Training | 12-14 December 2017 | Kampot\, Cambodia
DESCRIPTION:  \nGender Based Violence (GBV) is a pressing problem not only because it violates human rights\, but also because it poses a challenge to public health and economic and social development. \nGBV in Cambodia remains a significant issue and is a result of gender inequality and traditional gender norms existing within Cambodia’s societal structure. Gender inequalities are also reflected in sexual relationship where females are not given equal opportunities in decision making. \nFollowing the research study by the Ministry of Women Affair\, the Cambodia Gender Assessment 2014 has shown that out of 417 men 22 percent of them had experience physical violence in the past year and 25 percent had experience physical or sexual violence in their life time. In 2013\, out of 1\,831 men and women’s violence\, it was found that 35 percent of every male partner had use physical or sexual violence against an intimate partner. \nRape and sexual violence is perpetrated by family members\, acquaintances and sometime strangers\, and it often occurs in home\, school\, workplace\, and in the community. There are limited studies in Cambodia with robust data reported by victims of rape and sexual violence. Rape is typically an under-reported crime. \nThe Cambodia violence against children survey showed that more than 50 percent of both men and women experience at least one incident of physical violence prior to age 18. \nThe Cambodian Constitution enshrines the right of all Cambodians to life\, personal freedom\, and security (article 42)\, and guarantees that there shall be no physical abuse of any individual (article 38). \nGuided by 2011-2020 strategy\, the Cambodian Red Cross (CRC) has conducted various initiatives with a focus on (community-based) women’s and children’s health\, with an emphasis on giving supports to mother and newborns\, and assisting orphans with HIV/AIDs. In addition\, CRC has a long history of addressing gender and diversity concern through its vulnerable group assistance programs which provide support to people with disabilities\, orphanages\, the elderly\, people living with HIV/AIDs\, and widows. \nIn order to further promote this gender and diversity initiative\, CRC currently builds on existing gender policy\, which was enacted since 2003\, to be the comprehensive gender and diversity policy through consultative review with technical expert from IFRC\, Ministry of Women Affair\, and CRC leadership including department directors/deputy directors/managers as well as directors and deputy directors from all 25 CRC branches.  The policy was finally endorsed and disseminated to all 25 Red Cross branches during the training of trainer on gender and diversity held in December 2016 last year. \nTo bring up this initiative forward\, and as an auxiliary to the Royal Government of Cambodia\, CRC conducted the training on violence prevention integration into CBHFA to selected CRC program staff and branches during 13-14 December 2017 in Kampot Province. The training provided a broader picture of violence root cause\, impact\, and prevention mechanism to all participants that can be used to mainstream or integrate in their program\, branch development work\, and in other disseminating activities. \nObjective \n\nBuild the knowledge/capacity/skill of selected CRC-NHQ/branch/program staff in the field on violence prevention and response module\, and ensure participant can train their RC volunteers on how to answer tricky questions and deliver related key message persuasively\nIntroduce tools/guideline/framework and learn experience/lesson learnt/mechanism related from relevance ministries/organization.\nUnderstand how to effectively mainstream violence prevention and respond into CRC’s programming/activities and identify the opportunities it brings.\n\n \nRole-playing activity \nSupporting documents: \n\nConcept note\nAgenda\nTraining report\nDignity\, Access\, Participation\, and Safety (DAPS) Framework [Khmer version]

SUMMARY:Understanding the Legitimacy & Mandate of Malaysian Red Crescent Society | 16-17 December 2017 |  Kota Kinabalu\, Malaysia
DESCRIPTION:Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS) had undergone the Organizational Capacity Assessment & Certification (OCAC) in 2015 and it had positively identified gaps on matters pertaining to policies\, the absence of review on regulatory mechanisms\, enhance understanding of the legality and the mechanic of administration of the Society at various levels. \nMRCS had also completed the organization-wide Branch Organizational Capacity Assessment (BOCA) in 2016 and the trend indicated that there are still some room of improvements on matters pertaining to Emblems\, State (Branch) Planning and policies. \nArising from the two assessment\, MRCS had organized a Policy Development workshop to formulate policies that were considered as necessary and pertinent to the Society. Since then\, the policies had been endorsed by the National Council of the MRCS. Along with this\, another bold step was taken to review the MRCS Corporation Rules. \nThe output of the Policy Development and Review of the MRCS Corporation Rules had been put into effect. Nonetheless\, it is unclear how well the contents are understood at state and district level for effective implementation. \nOn this basis\, MRCS is proposing to organize a workshop to provide a better understanding of the legal base and current policies so that officials at all level understand their obligation\, roles and responsibilities to function efficiently and effectively as how a humanitarian organization is expected. This is also followed by understanding some of the basic principles of law which would assist the MRCS at state and district level to administer in accordance to the general principles of law\, thus ensuring that the principle of humanity is safeguarded. \nWorkshop Objectives: \n\nTo provide officials at governance and senior management at State and District level with a greater understanding of the domestic legal foundation\, regulatory mechanism on operational context and other Movement Statutes & Guidance.\nTo give greater insight on the Red Cross Red Crescent Emblem\, including the Third Additional Protocol vis-à-vis the consequences for National Society.\nTo strongly emphasize and caution on some areas of Conduct in MRCS context.\n\nWorkshop Structure & Content: \n1.

SUMMARY:Eleven Grab Taxi Drivers Equipped with Basic First Aid | 27 December | Bangkok\, Thailand
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe ninth first aid training was offered to the Grab taxi drivers on 27 December 2017 at the Thanapoom Tower on Petchaburi Road\, Bangkok. The six-hour standard basic first aid training was conducted to provide technical support from the facilitation team of the First Aid Training Center\, Thai Red Cross Head Quarter. \nEleven Grab taxi drivers (all males) participated in the training.  There were six key topics focusing on both technical and practical aspects of the standard basic first aid\, including: basic first aid procedures; bandaging of hands\, feet\, and head; use of arm sling; treatments of wounds\, choking\, stroke\, and heart diseases; cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR); and referral and transportation to hospitals. The training was facilitated by four first aid instructors/specialists from the First Aid Training Center\, Thai Red Cross Head Quarter.  All the participants received certificates after completion of the training course. \nIn 2017\, there were ten training courses organized by Grab Thailand. In total\, there were 216 Grab drivers participating in the training courses. \nAdditionally\, in 2018\, Grab Thailand is planning to organize about 4 basic first aid training courses (one training per quarter) with the technical support from the Thai Red Cross (Training Centre for First Aid and Health Care) and the IFRC CCST Bangkok.  For further information\, please contact Mr. Worawat Thiensuwan\, Grab Thailand Coordinator at worawat.th@grabtaxi.com and Dr. Pornsak Khortwong\, IFRC Health Officer at pornsak.khortwong@ifrc.org.
