In addition, the hosts of this consultation are confirming the participation of additional delegates from the Kenyan Ministry of Education, the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and UNESCO. We hope that all INEE members will give these participants your full support and encouragement.

The Anglophone Africa workshop will be held in Nairobi, Kenya from January 23-25, 2006 and is being co-hosted by CARE, Catholic Relief Services and Norwegian Church Aid. Lynne Bethke and Pamela Baxter, who developed the INEE Minimum Standards Training Materials, will be the lead trainers at this workshop. This is the first in a series of several regional Training of Trainers workshops on the Minimum Standards that will be carried out around the world during the first half of 2006; others are planned for Francophone Africa, Southeast Asia & the Pacific, South Asia, Latin America, The Caribbean, The Middle East and North Africa, North America and Europe. The goal of the INEE Training of Trainers process is to create a cadre of trainers based in regional capitals who will use training and other organizational and individual learning strategies to institutionalize the Minimum Standards within their agencies and partner organizations, thus strengthening the capacity of global, regional, national and local level education in emergency workers and networks

One of the requirements for each trainer participating in this TOT is to conduct a minimum of 2 local, national or regional trainings in education and emergency work in the 12 months after they have been trained by INEE. Thus, in the months following this TOT, all of the participants listed above will be organizing trainings. For nominees not selected and other interested INEE members, we encourage you to contact the participants in your area about participating in their future trainings.
