Professor Michael Hartnett has reviewed and provided feedback on the ARCD toolkit application and training effectiveness. Of which GOAL received positive feedback and along with recommendations for improvement.
[Blantyre, Malawi, August 2018]— NUIG visited two communities in Balaka and Chikwawa Districts to develop focus group discussions with community leaders to gather feedback from the community on their experience about the ARC-D toolkit. The ARC-D was found to be practical from their perspective, and it was eye-opener to understand how to analyse the resilience of their community. A conclusion was that a major gain of the ARC-D toolkit application is the opportunity to bring leaders together to discuss and exchange ideas on how they can increase their community resilience to disasters.
NUIG’s visit also included a focus group discussion with key stakeholders who had been trained by GOAL in the application of the ARC-D Toolkit in July 2018. The objective was to gather feedback about the training and suggest any improvements for future users. Participants considered the training very instructive and the ARC-D resulted being relevant for their field of work in Malawi. For those who had applied the ARC-D, also mentioned that the training prepared them well for the applications. Some general suggestions included complementary trainings on data analysis and reporting using ARC-D dashboards, as well as more case studies available to discuss during the training.
