| description | The workshop at the WASCAL Competence Centre, Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso held on 30th October, 2024, was a follow-on to the achievements of WASCAL on the developed curricula and training programmes and to engage relevant stakeholders on the possible uptake and integration of the training materials into university curricula.
The meeting was also to launch the extension of the first phase of the AICCRA Project (2021 to 2023) to cover 2024 and 2025. The meeting brought on board Vice Chancellors, Lecturers and Students of Universities in Burkina Faso, and other key members of the WASCAL team. The news about available funds for the extension of the first phase and the second phase that is supposed to start in 2026 was given during the UNFCCC COP 28 in Dubai in 2023. The notification to WASCAL was not only to the Capacity Building Department responsible for the development of training materials, but also to the WASCAL team in charge of the Independent Global Stocktake (iGST), based at the Competence Center in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. While the curriculum development is ongoing, WASCAL will like to gather some relevant stakeholders to create awareness, share experiences and identify best practices and orientations that can facilitate the implementation of the extended phase. The workshop showed that engaging Vice Chancellors in person can influence decisions making at a faster rate. Also, dissemination of the training materials upscaled awareness about the developed curricula and training materials. Finally, having both students and university leadership engaged in a panel discussion provided different perspectives on how the developed curricula can be adopted by the universities. Going forward WASCAL intends to introduce the developed modules by WASCAL and RUFORUM to newly admitted WASCAL scholars. In addition, lecturers in Burkina Faso will be involved in the next Trainer of Trainees on the two newly developed curricula in Ghana as part of the spill-over effect. Lastly, WASCAL will co-develop a monitoring and evaluation system to follow up on the use of the training materials in teaching and research in Burkina Faso. |
