TOR Conflict Prevention Training

By Live Lover -

Background

VSF Germany is an international non-governmental organization founded in 1991 at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Hannover (Tierärztliche Hochschule). It has its Africa Regional Office in Kenya where it was registered in 1999 and from where it coordinates its program in Kenya, South Sudan, Ethiopia and Tanzania. VSF Germanys’ mission is “to improve the welfare of pastoral and agro-pastoral vulnerable population in developing countries through special focus on animal Health, production and marketing, but also tackle broader issues of food security, livelihood diversification, conflict mitigation and resolution, drought preparedness, advocacy, post conflict recovery and rehabilitation.”

VSF Germany is currently working within a consortium on an ECHO funded project focusing on strengthening resilience and emergency preparedness among pastoralist and fishermen communities in arid lands of Kenya. The Consortium was formed in consultation with ECHO with the aim to establish a network of partners who are prepared and ready to respond quickly and effectively in time of emergencies.
The action targets arid lands of Northern Kenya (Isiolo, Mandera, Turkana, Marsabit, Moyale, Garissa, Wajir, Baringo, Pokot and Samburu), a region that has suffered recurrent drought and extreme climatic conditions with devastating effects on the lives of people, the environment and communities’ livelihoods. These droughts often occur in contexts where conflict, high food prices, and restrictions on traditional livelihood strategies have already impoverished large sections of the population. Therefore a conflict prevention component with the focus on resource based conflicts is included in the project. In order to implement the conflict mitigation activities a training will be organized by VSF Germany to prepare staff of consortium members to execute the planned operations using the Do Not Harm and the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach.
