Regional Community-Based AHI Management Practitioners’ Workshop Bangkok 10th-13th March 2008

The Regional Community-Based AHI Management Practitioners’ Workshop is part of the project on ‘Strengthening Community-Based Approaches to Management of AHI in Asia’. This project was initiated by the AHI-NGO-RC/RC-Asia Partnership – comprised of the Asian Disaster Preparedness Centre (ADPC), Care, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and the International Rescue Committee (IRC) – and is funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB)

The project seeks to strengthen partnerships between communities, NGOs, governments, UN organizations, the private sector and academic institutions in their efforts to manage AHI in communities in Asia. In particular, the project seeks to strengthen the capacities of non-government and community organizations working with communities in managing AHI in the Asian region.
