10.Certificate in Resilience Programming Background

The concept of resilience has captured the interest of donors, policy makers and implementers who work to address problems of poverty, food insecurity, and the broader set of welfare outcomes. The past decade has seen the growth and adoption of resilience as a central focus of investments to strengthen the ability of people to survive and even thrive in the face of shocks and stresses. Yet the capacity to build and promote resilience at various levels has remained a gap. This course aims at strengthening the capacity of development practitioners to understand vulnerability contexts and the factors contributing to resilience under different vulnerability contexts. The course fills gaps in evidence methods and skills in order to guide the design, implementation and scaling of resilience investments and ensure their effectiveness.

Course goal: The goal of the course is to strengthen the knowledge and evidence base for resilience and to build the skills in resilience programming to close the gap between resilience measurement in theory and in practice.
