Description
"Conduct Camp Management and Village Security Training Programmes for GNDMC Members" under the Building Resilience and Strengthening Community Disaster Preparedness in Sri Lanka Project
World Vision Lanka is presently implementing project called "Building Resilience and Strengthening Community Disaster Preparedness in Sri Lanka," which is being supported by USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA).
The primary objective of this project is to enhance household resilience against various shocks by implementing a multi-sectoral approach to strengthen disaster risk reduction mechanisms and uplift the livelihoods of vulnerable communities within selected districts. Thus, the project prioritizes interventions that address capacity gaps and enhance technical knowledge within the existing disaster risk reduction structure of targeted communities. Working closely with Grama Niladhari Disaster Management Committees (GNDMCs), World Vision Lanka (WVL) aims to enhance their capacity and empower them as key drivers of change in disaster risk reduction efforts, ensuring communities are equipped to effectively respond to disasters. Considering the social and cultural dynamics at play, WVL will incorporate diversified interventions in capacity development, utilizing the "Community Based Disaster Risk Management" (CBDRM) model as a unifying framework for the project. This approach ensures an integral strategy and a common point of reference for all stakeholders involved.
As part of this initiative, Shelter and Village Security Training is being prioritized to enhance disaster preparedness among vulnerable communities. World Vision (WV) will organize, GND-level training sessions for Shelter and Village Security for members of Grama Niladhari Disaster Management Committees (GNDMCs) across locations including Rideegama, Lindula, Devon, Ganga Ihala Korale (GIK), Walapane, Karachchi, and Kandawalai. The program aims to train a total of 2160 participants, comprising GNDMC members through 54 awareness and practical sessions conducted over one day in each location.
Participants will be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage shelters (security places/camps) during disaster situations. This could include understanding shelter management protocols, assessing shelter needs, ensuring shelter safety, and providing support to shelter occupants.
Participants will learn strategies and techniques to enhance village security during disasters. This includes identifying security risks, implementing security measures, coordinating with relevant authorities, and safeguarding communities from potential threats.
