The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) and the Danish Demining Group (DDG) are under the auspice of the Network for Conflict Prevention and Peacebuilding offering a 5-day training on humanitarian mediation. You can through this training acquire mediation & dialogue facilitation skills, based on neutral and impartial principles, with a focus on using these skills in humanitarian programmes and/or other conflict contexts.  The training draws on principles of adult education, uses a participatory and practical approach aiming at developing skills and aptitudes, based on participants’ own experiences.

 

The aim of the Humanitarian Mediation training is to provide humanitarian aid workers operating in conflict context with practical knowledge, tools and skills to design, plan and conduct humanitarian mediation and dialogue facilitation processes aiming at:

  • Preventing or mitigating episodes of violence,
  • Preventing forced displacement and facilitating returns,
  • Improving humanitarian access and acceptance,
  • Enhancing respect for affected population’s basic rights.

 

The processes presented during the training will also be useful for personnel involved in safe and good quality programming activities such as:

  • Protection mainstreaming,
  • Participation and Community-based approaches,
  • Communication with beneficiaries and Community Engagement,
  • Accountability to Affected Population (AAP) processes, 
  • Do No Harm.

 

While tools and approaches covered in the training may effectively contribute to longer-term social cohesion, stability and inclusive governance processes in divided communities, this proposed training is not a peace-building training. It does not cover political mediation processes but rather focuses on community based pro-active protection approaches in humanitarian contexts.

 

Extensive experience in mediation or conflict management is not a requirement however the participants will be selected based on a motivated application. We will strive to put together a diverse group of participants in order for as much experience and learning to take place between participants. Depending on the number of applications from each organization there may be a limit to the number of applicants from the same organization.
