Description:
The CAP Workshop facilitation team consists of a mixed group of representatives from the village, kebelle/gott and woreda levels and might also sometimes be joined by people from the regional level. This team should be a good mix of women and men with different backgrounds, experience and knowledge and representing a range of different institutions, including community based organisations that are operating in the woreda and the kushets/gotts where planning is to take place.
Objectives:
To be well organised and to jointly agree on the different roles of the different CAP Workshop facilitation team members during preparation, implementation and follow-up activities of the CAP Workshop.
To ensure a good mix of team members from different government sectors and community based organisations.
To ensure that women are part of the CAP Workshop team.
To ensure that at least some team members have previous experience in facilitating community actions.
Other criteria as identified by the PMU, regions, woreda, tabia/kebelle level institutions.
To ensure that enough CAP team members are trained and available. For every CAP workshop in a kushet/gott the minimum number of facilitators is nine.
Method:
1. The Woreda Co-ordination Committee, in collaboration with the Tabia/Kebelle Committee, proposes which institutions and individuals should become part of the CAP Workshop facilitation team. Selection criteria should ensure that the above mentioned objectives of the team formation are met.
2. The Woreda Co-ordination Committee, in collaboration with the regional bureaux and the PMU, should identify an experienced CAP facilitator as a trainer of CAP teams who could also be an important advisor for conducting the first round of CAP workshops.
3. The Woreda Co-ordination Committee should decide who should be the team leader for the different CAP workshop teams, while taking into account her/his experience in facilitation tasks and while keeping in mind the roles/tasks of this person as outlined in CAP tool 2.
4. Proposed CAP Workshop facilitation team members need to be willing and able to participate in the CAP training workshops held at woreda levels.
5. The CAP Workshop facilitation team meets to decide on their tasks as a group and to decide on individual responsibilities. All team members should be willing to gradually build their facilitation skills.
6. The team will be responsible for Preparing the CAP Workshop (CAP Tool 2) and Informing the Community (CAP Tool 3) about the community action planning process.
