Laboratorio: the practice of international emergency response
A.A. 2019/2020
Obiettivi formativi
The main objective of the workshop is for the students to experience the practice of response to humanitarian emergencies through an experiential workshop that combines traditional training sessions and methodology and practical simulation exercises. Simulations are often used in humanitarian activities to test response plans, review procedures, identify gaps and inefficiencies, solve problems, and in general enhance the capacity of organizations and individuals to respond to emergencies in an effective, efficient and reliable manner.

1st meeting:
· Presentation of the workshop: structure, methods, objectives, and key outputs. Introduction of the scenario, and distribution of roles and responsibilities.
· Theory: introduction to the key sectors of intervention in situation of emergency caused by natural disasters, areas of responsibility and ways of operating.
· Groupwork: research and analysis of data on the disaster, preliminary discussion on how to structure the response.
2nd meeting:
· First inter-sectoral/agency meeting, and kick start of the simulation. Plenary discussion of the results of the meeting, and identification of the objectives for the second one.
· Theory: diversity analysis and inclusion in emergency response.
· Groupwork: research and analysis of data on the affected population, and the differential needs and concerns of men, women, boys and girls per sector of intervention.
3rd meeting:
· Plenary discussion and Q&As on the work of each group.
· Theory: communication, advocacy and resources mobilization in emergencies.
· Groupwork: preparation for the second inter-sectoral meeting. Development of a joint press-release, identification of visuals, graphic, press conference, etc.
4th meeting:
· Second inter-sectoral meeting, followed by a plenary discussion on opportunities for an effective and prompt response.
· Theory: open session to discuss themes and aspects of concern to the groups.
· Groupwork: development of the (sectoral) respone plan.
5th meeting:
· Brief presentation of the response plan by each sector.
· Groupwork: analysis of potential for coordination, complementarities and synergies.
· Closing, feedback on the participation and contribution, and next steps.

Informazioni sul programma
Expected outputs are:
- A consolidated situation report per defined sector of intervention;
- A consolidated needs' assessment report per defined sector of intervention on the effects of the disaster on the affected populations, with due consideration for diversity and inclusion;
- A joint definition of the response priorities (strategic response planning);
- Elaboration of the key elements of a communication strategy and development of a first joint press release.
By the end of the workshop, students will have to submit a structured and more comprehensive response plan, which should include an accurate and realistic analysis of the situation and the priorities identified therein, the actions to be taken in the respective sectors of intervention, complementarities, and synergies with other sectors, and the resources needed to best manage the response in each sector. The plan will be the result of the groupwork, discussion and reading of the material provided during the workshop.

Metodi didattici
The methods used are based on the principles of adult and experimental learning, are participatory, and are intended to accommodate the experience and needs of those participating. This workshop sees a combination of more traditional training sessions, and interactive discussions and exercises in preparation for and as part of the simulation. A mix of methods will be used, including theoretical presentations, groupwork, role plays, and others. We will discuss more in details later what a simulation exercise exactly entails and to what extent our workshop will rely on the simulation technique.
