Makerere University team conducts Pilot CPD programme in Digital Archiving and Peace-building
From 20th February to 19th March 2021, the ISOOKO project through Makerere University team conducted a pilot CPD programme in Digital Archiving and Peacebuilding. The programme attracted participants from the East African region (Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda) who were equitably selected, these were Waweru Samuel – Kenya, Okello Gilbert – Rwanda, Ninkusiima Moore – Uganda, Oscar Nkoobe – Uganda, Mwaurah Naomy – Kenya, James Oluka – Uganda, and Emmanuel Anguyo – Uganda. The CPD is a result of the Training Needs Assessment (TNA) that was conducted throughout the East African Region. The TNA birthed the month-long four-module virtual Continuous Professional Training Programme (CPD). The purpose of the training was to impart knowledge and skills to trainees in peace building and digital archiving. The participants were trained on four modules that included: Museum & Peace Education, Conflict Management & Peacebuilding, Digital Archiving & Photography, and Digital Security. A walk
