KOBO VIRTUAL TRAINING
from October 21 to November 13, 2025
Context
The aim of the training is to strengthen technical skills in information management, focusing on data collection and the use of digital tools, providing participants with the competencies needed to support decision-making processes and reporting in disaster or crisis response. As an introduction, the course focuses on fundamental skills; however, the package offers reading lists, materials, and recommendations to colleagues to further enhance participants’ capacity to design and develop data collection instruments in humanitarian settings.
The course consists of 7 virtual sessions, with prior virtual courses, practical activities between sessions, and a mandatory final integrative exercise for course completion.
The Anticipation Hub is an initiative of the German Red Cross, the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre, and the IFRC, with financial support from the German Federal Foreign Office (German FFO).
The theme of the seventh edition is “Act Before, Protect Better: Strengthening Anticipatory Action in South America.” Around 120 in-person participants and approximately 100 virtual participants are expected, representing the Anticipatory Action community of practice in the region.
