The course aims to introduce you to the processes, skills and knowledge required to design and implement Assessment and Analysis (A&A) processes, with particular focus on making sense of available information and reports in humanitarian emergencies coming from field locations. Therefore, it relies on the broad experience of ACAPS (initially: "The Assessment Capacities Project”), using guidance from ACAPS Technical Briefs and the Humanitarian Needs Assessment – The Good Enough Guide (GEGA) – as backdrops. The pedagogical approach will follow a mixture of introductory presentations and group work, including the work on case studies.
The course is targeting headquarter based staff in humanitarian organisations. Consequently, the discussion will be centred around assessment methods and approaches using secondary data, open access data analysis.
The course is planned as face-to-face training on 22 and 23 April 2024.
