- facilitated connections and relationships between the ASEAN region and New Zealand emergency management practitioners through strategic development of course material
Project scope
- engagement with Open Polytechnic utilising their e-learning experience and expertise
- development of digital assets, material and exercises to enable course delivery
- delivery of CIL1 and CIL2 courses via online and hybrid (online + in person) e-learning methodologies
Building a generation of future ASEAN leaders
The New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade (MFAT), through the New Zealand Aid Programme, has provided ACE Programme support since 2014. It has engaged several other New Zealand institutions, including GNS Science, as part of the effort to build a generation of future ASEAN leaders in disaster management.
This project continues the implementation of the delivery of CIL courses in past ACE programme iterations. Previous iterations were co-ordinated by the University of Canterbury, and pre-COVID-19 facilitators delivered the first block (CIL1) in person in Jakarta, Indonesia over a three-day period and the second block (CIL2) saw participants travel to New Zealand for a 10-day interrelated course. Due to COVID-19, international travel was not possible, and CIL1 and CIL2 were redeveloped for delivery via an online and hybrid e-learning methods.
