Terms of Reference (ToR) - Training Curriculum Development and Delivery

Project Overview:

The Civil Society Table of Dialogue (CSTD) and the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) are preparing for the second phase of their project called "Democracy, Citizenship & State Regaining." Starting in July 2023 and lasting for 2 months, Phase II aims to enhance the democratic understanding and active participation of Lebanese citizens. This will be achieved through a series of four training workshops strategically located across the country. The workshops will take place in Beirut (at Makassed Schools), as well as three other locations: Sawfar, Zahle, and Hasbaya. The workshops will accommodate a diverse audience, with an expected participation of 20 to 30 individuals per session, fostering an inclusive learning environment. Each full-day workshop consists of three focused sessions. The first two sessions, lasting three hours each, will cover topics such as "Citizenship, Patriotism, and Active Participation" and "Media Role, Platforms, and Peace Building." The final session will be interactive, featuring an open discussion led by Princess Hayat Arslan and a guest speaker, focusing on the current political landscape and necessary reforms.

Scope of Work:

The Trainers/Training company is requested to develop a comprehensive and dynamic training module that encompasses citizenship, patriotism, and the impact of audio-visual media, theater, and music. The content should cater to varied learning styles and reflect Lebanon's unique political, economic, and social aspects. The module should be aligned with the Attitude, Skills, and Knowledge Framework, considering resource and time constraints, as well as the specific needs of the target audience.

The modules should encourage collaboration and active participation, fostering the exchange of ideas and experiences. They should adapt to Lebanon's context and address the nation's specific challenges.

Deliverables:

The trainers are entrusted with the execution of the training workshops at four predetermined locations: Beirut, Sawfar, Zahle, and Hasbaya, between July 04 2023, and August 15, 2023. Each workshop constitutes one training day. Trainers should be prepared to adapt their methods dynamically in response to participant feedback (20 to 30 participants per session) and distinct group dynamics. Following each workshop, the trainers are supposed to refine the training materials based on participant feedback and the specific requirements of each location.
