Description:
The Consortium for DEWATS Dissemination (CDD) Society is a not-for-profit organisation working in the field of Decentralised Basic Need Services (DBNS) across India. For the past 10 years the Consortium has successfully promoted and implemented DBNS with community participatory approach.
CDD Society aims to create a knowledge base for up-scaling Decentralised Basic Need Services through its capacity building approach. CDD Society, in partnership with Bremen Overseas Research and Development Association (BORDA), Germany and Rajiv Gandhi Rural Housing Corporation Limited (RGRHCL) is organising a five day Training on ‘Towards Sustainable Community Based Sanitation (CBS)’ from 23rd to 27th August, 2010 in Bangalore.
Social development aspect and hygiene promotion are crucial for sustainable Community Based Sanitation. Hence there is a good demand for enhancing the skills of community engagement and hygiene promotion.
Therefore CDD Society clubbed together its previously planned trainings on ‘Social Coordination’ and ‘Health and Hygiene’ and remodelled it to a Training on ‘Towards Sustainable Community Based Sanitation (CBS)’. This training gives the opportunity for everybody in this field to upgrade their proficiency based on a broader knowledge of CBS issues and their linkages in the project implementation.
A team of experienced Trainers from the CDD Network as well as external experts from the Water and Sanitation sector are ensuring a qualified and highly participatory training.
The Course is targeted at Local Government units, NGOs, Academic Institutions, Civil society groups, practitioners, Public bodies and individuals associated with community work related to water and sanitation issues. Interactive sessions, field visits, analysis of case studies and hands-on training is provided by an experienced training team from CDD and different relevant organisations representing a good balance between Academics and practitioners. The course has been designed for maximum of 20 participants for efficient and effective learning. On successful completion of the training course, participants will receive a certificate from CDD Society.
It is a residential training course with a fee of Rupees Twenty Thousand only (Rs. 20,000/-) per person, which includes training kit, materials, boarding and lodging.
