In this first entry in the Security Distillery's workshop series we will be focusing on programme development in humanitarian response. Dr Caitriona Dowd will be leading the workshop which will introduce participants to the process of developing project proposals, seeking funding, and incorporate key aspects of design such as contextual analysis, needs assessments, and partnerships.
Caitriona Dowd is Assistant Professor in Security Studies at DCU's School of Law and Government. Caitriona has led graduate-level teaching on the governance of violent conflict, international security in global politics, the political economy of violent conflict and research methods. In her previous role as a peace and conflict specialist in the humanitarian sector, Caitriona worked in Somalia, Central African Republic, South Sudan, Mali, Kenya, Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Afghanistan.
Two short readings on NGO proposal development will be sent out on the 16th of June. While these readings are not required to take part in the workshop, it is stressed that they will greatly enhance the experience of the participants
A Zoom link will be sent out the day before the event.
