| Hi there,
Did you ever find yourself in the situation that the country you work in experienced a natural or man-made disaster and you wished you knew how to access the funds available? Or do you live in an at-risk country and sometimes wonder how you can prepare for the case of a disaster in terms of fundraising? We know how important this is and have just developed an online course specifically for this topic!
Disasters can happen anywhere and at any time. Specifically in developing countries, the resources to react well are often lacking. Being prepared and knowing how to raise funds in humanitarian situations is of key importance to be able to react and to save lives!
A disaster can be an earthquake, a flood, a war or a famine – anything you can think of that throws life in your country out of balance. Especially when the disaster is of a certain scope, the willingness to help is high – but to actually benefit from it and save the lives of people, it is important to know the ropes and to be well prepared! ;  Did you know that there are many different classifications of humanitarian situations and disasters and that they all require different channels to finance the response to them? Did you know that there are different funds that help, but that some require that you register as early as possible? Probably not. To make sure you have all the important information about how to finance projects in humanitarian situations, we have put together this online course. It is a great introduction to the topic for anybody working in at-risk countries.
This course consists of four modules that cover everything you need to know. The modules are:
- The Landscape of Humanitarian Funding
- Finding Funding for Emergencies
- Funds to Apply to
- Tips and Tricks to Prepare and Apply
As you can see, we cover everything from an introduction to the landscape of humanitarian funding to how to actually apply and even more importantly prepare – as there is seldom the time to properly write proposals, once disaster has hit.
If you are working in an at-risk country, this course is super important for you to make sure you will be able to play an important role in reaction to a potential disaster. And an at-risk country can be any country, as the latest huge scale disasters after hurricanes in the USA have shown. Furthermore, disasters are not always rapid – they can be slowly on setting as well but require the same mechanisms to receive funding.
We have worked in many disaster situations ourselves – your instructor Janet is currently based in Haiti, and most of our staff members have lived and worked through the big Nepal earthquake in 2015. We have a lot of important experiences to share with you and want to help you to be better prepared than we were – because once you are in it, there is no more time. We know this from first hand experience!
And the best thing is – we offer the course at 33% off this week. For US$ 100 only you can get all the information you need to get prepared for potential disaster. Make sure you stay on top of things and invest now to prepare your organization for any potential disaster! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us! And remember, we have a 30-day money back policy, so if the course is not what you expected, you will get your funds back – no questions asked!
