Applications are invited for South Asia Training for Trainers in Dhaka by 350.org in collaboration with the Bangladesh Youth Movement for Climate (BYMC) with the support of the British Council Bangladesh.
This training will be organized from September 25 to 28, 2012 at the British Council in Dhaka, Bangladesh as part of movement building efforts in South Asia.
The T4T is meant for activists, civil society leaders and environmentally active youth from across South Asia who will be equipped with vital training resources that will be useful throughout their working career. The workshop will be emphasized on providing specific skills on ways to build a campaign, building a movement, online campaigning, storytelling and various other skills that modern day campaigners would need to work towards achieving their goals.
In addition to this, the training for trainers or T4T brings with it a new curriculum that offers the participants an experiential based training. Such training entails activities that allow the participants to deeply reflect on the issues of our times and develop a strong shared purpose and ways to achieve their goals.
The T4T will be a 4 day intense training program designed for young people between the age group of 20-40. The final selection of the applicants will be based on the answers in the form.
Besides acquiring various skills as mentioned earlier, the trainers will also practice the training themselves. One of the expectations of the participants before selecting them would be to organize a similar T4T in their own region and that way, continue to build the movement. These trainers will also be encouraged to form local groups that will organize local campaigns which 350.org can support through various resources.
The deadline for receiving completed applications is August 10, 2012.
