We are thankful to relevant officials of the training center of NGO Forum Rangpur and AVAS Barisal. We are particularly grateful for the support of IAPP officials, especially regional officials of Rangpur and Barisal for supporting the training by facilitating the sessions on IAPP and selecting and coordinating field practices. Finally, deep gratitude goes to IAPP TA, FAO Team for providing their technical support in developing curriculum and overall coordination of the training.

4 Executive Summary Bangladesh was granted US$ 50 million from the Global Agriculture and Food Security Programme (GAFSP) to improve food security in the country in The Integrated Agricultural Productivity Project (IAPP) intends to integrate investments mainly in three areas (technology generation, technology dissemination and water management) with a technical assistance (TA) component. While the first investment components are implemented by the Government (through a Project Management Unit) and supervised by the World Bank, the TA component was intended to be implemented and supervised by the FAO. The objective of TA component is to strengthen Bangladeshi capacities in investment programming for agriculture and food security. The IAPP is being implemented in 375 Unions, in 54 Upazilas, in eight districts. IAPP recruited a total of 108 Field Assistant (Livestock and Fisheries) to facilitate the formation of village institutions and farmer s organizations aimed to promote successful innovations in the field of livestock and fisheries. FOs will be the entry point for project activities in a village/ward. The FOs will be technically and socially supported by the project. Capacity development requires the development of conditions that allow individual and community participants to build and enhance existing knowledge and skills. It also calls for creating conditions that will allow individuals to be engaged in the process of learning and adapting to change. In this particular context, the purpose of IAPP is to strengthen community capacities and institutions to handle their own development. Institutions are at the heart of human development and that when they are able to perform better, that helps sustain the performance over time and manage to contribute more meaningfully to achieve the project goal. The VERC Training Experts with technical support of IAPP - TA Team designed a draft course outline and curriculum in view of the goal, objectives, activities, roles and responsibilities of Field Assistant (Livestock and Fisheries) defined by IAPP project This curriculum was finalized through a sharing meeting which was participated by IAPP project officials and arranged by FAO team. A total of 108 recruited Field Assistant (Livestock and Fisheries) were imparted training in 4 batches. A training was planned for 108 Field Assistant (Livestock and Fisheries) but due to drop out of 2 persons in Barisal Region it became 106. A total of 2 batches of training were held in Rangpur and 2 batches of the training were held in Barisal Region. Participatory methodologies like - group work, interactive discussion, experience sharing, VIPP, role-play, field practice, practical observation, case study and question-answer were followed throughout the training course. 4

19 LESSONS LEARNT AND RECOMMENDATIONS Overall major learning that came out from the session are as follows: Major learning (content wise): Objectives of the project are very much clear to the participants and understood about the strategy, tools and techniques of the components of fisheries, livestock, crops, seed and irrigation Would be able to select real beneficiaries for group formation by using PRA tools Roles and responsibilities of a CF for dealing with different stakeholders and facilitate the farmers group related activities are very much clear to the participants Internalized the basic concepts of development, participation, empowerment, transparency and sustainability Internalized the tools and techniques of facilitation Able to explain about community mobilization and CMC Able to make use of PRA tools at the field level for various purposes. Able to prepare a realistic action plan for implementation of interventions Able to understand about gender, gender mainstreaming and sensitization in the light of IAPP Able to explain about monitoring and reporting system of the project and responsibility of the CF for monitoring and reporting Able to prepare report on field activities. Major learning (over all): Time allocation against of the session was not realistic. Day wise topics were so many that the facilitators could not finish sessions timely. MAIN CHALLENGES Community mobilization and facilitation are processes, it is important to acknowledge and anticipate some challenges and find out ways of dealing with them or adopt mechanism for coping with them to accelerate the program. Some challenges are as follows: Less time allocation for the field practice of PRA tools due to short duration of training Participants were newly recruited so it was very tough to ensure quality process of PRA CONCLUSION: The training course had been very much useful for implementation of the project interventions. Though a number of limitations have been noted in the report, the training has created a base understanding in the Field Assistant to move ahead with the project process. Further review and follow-up would open up windows to enrich the course for adoption and implementation purposes in future. 19
