Indeed around 2007, TPO Uganda hosted its first international Training of Trainers Course in Psychosocial support. This first cohort was oversubscribed and we enrolled about 22 students from all over the world but mostly from the USA. Students on this three week course, spent one week in classroom training and 2 weeks on accompanied field placement with a TPO field Social Worker. We advertised this course through the International Trauma Studies Program, NYC USA, which was already very popular in this field of work, and we continued conducting these trainings until 2010. This course was hosted by TPO Uganda at the Arua Resource Centre and co-facilitated by international trainers. This arrangement provided coaching and mentorship for TPO in-house capacity in conducting international trainings. This became one of the most lucrative of all our training programmes. TPO Uganda has collaborated with several of them on different initiatives in the recent past.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-3158\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"8\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-3158\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-plus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">2008- 2010: AMISOM - Somalia under UNICEF<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-3158\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-3158\"><p>Assignment:<\/p><p>Strengthened the capacity of AMISOM personnel to protect children and women in Mogadishu.

The trainings were greatly appreciated and we started getting additional requests for training thereafter. As a result, we added a specific objective on training and capacity building in the TPO 2003 &#8211; 2005 Strategic Plan, and used the proceeds from the UNICEF training to develop and improve our training curricula, retool trainers and develop training materials and constituted a Training Unit that later become the TPO Uganda Resource Center.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OUR EXPERIENCE\/PROFILE Since 2003 to date , we have been able to accumulate lots of experience spanning over 20 years building capacity of communities , governments and non profit organizations [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-21306","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.1 -
