Localisation and Partnerships

This course is meant for people who work in the humanitarian and development sector and are interested to learn why localisation is important and what are tools and skills that can make it work in their organisations.

Localisation means empowering local responders to lead and deliver humanitarian and development aid. It aims at strengthening the capacity and resources of local organisations to promote long-term sustainability. Localisation recognises the importance of local context knowledge and cultural understanding in providing effective and culturally appropriate aid.

In this course, we look at localisation and equitable partnerships. We will discuss how historic trends and persisting attitudes can work against effective localisation, and we will learn how to build more equitable partnerships.

By the end of this course, you will:

Understand what localisation is and why it is important in today’s humanitarian and development context
Be able to distinguish between different types and levels of localisation as well as their benefits and challenges
Have practiced relevant tools for localization in your organisation
Have strengthened your skills to build equitable partnerships for localisation
Have reflected on your own localization mindset
Have formulated strategies to strengthen localization in your organisation
