Capacity-Building Strategy and Action Plan. NIWS’ capacity-building strategy continued in full force this quarter, with a focus on strengthening capacities to develop effective investments in natural infrastructure that meet all requirements of Peru’s public investment system, Xxxxxxxx.xx. Courses were delivered effectively through the new NIWS Virtual Classroom (xxxxx://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx), which was implemented in April as one of the Project’s key adaptive management measures in response to limited in-person training due to COVID-19 social distancing measures. The first course to utilize the NIWS Virtual Classroom concluded in June, having trained 130 project developers and supervisors on public investments in natural infrastructure in the framework of Reconstrucción con Cambios. Additionally, this quarter NIWS kicked off a new course with the National School of Public Administration (ENAP) on public investment in natural infrastructure and advanced development of three new courses. The following sections detail progress on each of these. This quarter, NIWS trained 130 project developers and supervisors working directly to prepare Integrated Plans that will direct investment under Reconstrucción con Cambios in 17 vulnerable watersheds. The training took place through the online course, Development Natural Infrastructure Investments for Disaster Risk Management, which was developed with MINAGRI in its role as supervisor for a number of these plans. In March, Forest Trends transitioned the training online in lieu of a series of in-person workshops that had been planned in Lima and Piura, in response to COVID-19 related restrictions. The virtual course took place between April 13th and May 30th, 2020. Out of the 176 total participants, 130 completed all modules (74%) and 123 passed the course (70%). 29 of the graduates were women (24%) and 94 were men (76%). Nearly two-thirds of participants were from consulting firms hired to develop the Integrated Plans; one-third were from supervisory entities (MINAGRI, MINAM, PCM, Reconstrucción con Cambios, regional governments, and local governments). Eighty percent of participants evaluated the course as either satisfactory or very satisfactory. The most valued aspects were the methodology and the teachers. See Figure 9.
Capacity-Building Strategy and Action Plan. As described in other parts of the report, various capacity-building processes are in development or implementation, both institutional and individual. Among capacity-building processes focused on individual capacities, there are varying degrees of overlap in audiences and content shared among these efforts. The cross-cutting capacity-building strategy supports and coordinates these efforts across the project to ensure coherence, quality, and synergy among these various efforts. Moreover, this quarter, NIWS began a concerted effort to move nearly all of our capacity-building material online, in the interest of offering a robust set of training opportunities in the context of severe restrictions under the current health emergency due to COVID-19. The development of online content across these various activities creates an even more important opportunity for synergy that we are actively coordinating to achieve. Capacity-building processes completed this quarter include: 1. Course in Identification and Formulation of Restoration Projects of the Ecosystem Service of Water Regulation in the framework of the work with Sedapal The range of capacity-building processes currently in development are: 2. Course on Investment Formulation related to Natural Infrastructure and Disaster Risk Management (with MINAGRI/PSI, in context of Reconstruccion Con Cambios) 3. Course on Specialization in Identification and Formulation of Public Investment Projects in Natural Infrastructure 4. Course on Specialization in Identification and Formulation of Public Investment Projects in Natural Infrastructure (with ENAP) 5. Introductory course to natural infrastructure in the agricultural sector in the face of climate change (Agrorural) 6. Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) course on natural infrastructure with ENAP (New) 7. Introduction to natural infrastructure for water security MOOC 8. Journalists course in IN Annex 8 details for all five courses in preparation: counterparts, dates, training modules, cross topics and intensity of training.
