Where: Bucharest Romania, “Gradinita Rasarit”

After last year’s successful course, AMURTEL Romania is organizing its second annual Disaster Relief Management Training. The course last year resulted in a motivated team of volunteers that organized a small scale intervention in August 2010 at a camp of families displaced by flooding in Brailla.
The goal of the course is to strengthen and build the AMURT and AMURTEL volunteers that are ready to be part of a “Rapid Response Team” responding to disasters both on the national and international levels.
The training will be led by instructors who have participated in the AMURT and AMURTEL relief efforts for large scale disasters in Indonesia, Myanmar, and Haiti. In particular the course will focus on creating “Child Friendly Spaces” programs, based on the successful experiences of AMURT and AMURTEL in recent disaster relief situations.
