Academy — ERR volunteer training tracks

Academy

Structured training instead of word-of-mouth. Ten tracks built from the network's own priority needs.

Public Work & Civic Engagement

What public work means in practice, and how volunteers act as civic actors without becoming political actors.

Distinguishing state institutions, civil society organisations, NGOs and INGOs — mandates, funding and accountability.

Shared foundational vocabulary for humanitarian, civic and governance work across the network.

How decentralized governance works, and what democratic arrangements mean for local decision making.

De-escalation, mediation and conflict-sensitive practice in high-pressure communal aid environments.

Agendas, facilitation, decision records and follow-up that survive leadership changes.

Presenting projects, proposals and cases to donors and conferences in a professional, convincing way.

From community need to a funder-ready proposal: logic, budget, indicators and advocacy framing.

Language that reduces polarization and supports coexistence, tolerance and constructive dialogue.

Documenting decisions and lessons, and using AI tools responsibly for research, documentation and productivity.
