Training

Supporting community-led crisis response is not a fix-all for all crises, but an evolving set of guidance on how the current, externally driven approaches to aid can be complemented by directly supporting affected individuals and communities in analysing threats, challenges, and importantly – identifying opportunities for positive change which they can then pursue themselves. Sclr has also shown itself to be an effective approach for supporting mutual aid efforts affected people already engage in.

L2GP offers training workshops on implementing sclr and ‘training of trainers’ courses in sclr approaches. Please get in touch to find out about our next workshops and how you can participate.
