Book Description
This book comes out at a very opportune time when the sector is struggling with sanitation marketing that is considered an organic next step for rural communities that have been declared open defecation free. Besides, this publication comes in to address the gaps that face the peri-urban spaces that are facing population explosion and require innovative ways of dealing with mostly non-sewered sanitation services. This guide/manual was developed as part of a training package to support business development skills training for local sanitation entrepreneurs in Kenya. Financial and technical support was provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under the Kenya integrated water and sanitation (KIWASH) project. KIWASH was a five year (2015-2020) project implemented by the Development Alternatives Incorporation (DAI) across nine counties. One of the key goals of KIWASH was to help trigger and activate demand for low cost affordable sanitation technologies in rural and low income communities. The overall objective of this manual is to equip sanitation specialists and public resource persons with the basic concepts and tools, to facilitate entrepreneurship and financial literacy training for start-up sanitation entrepreneurs in rural communities. Specifically, this manual is designed to help participants: 1) Learn the basic concepts of entrepreneurship and characteristics of successful entrepreneurs; 2) Learn and practice essential marketing techniques for sanitation products and services; 3) Develop money management competencies necessary to succeed as a small-scale entrepreneur; 4) Build necessary leadership and management skills to grow successful sanitation enterprises. Overall, the guide/manual is useful in guiding implementation of sanitation marketing projects, and provides concise content for nurturing and building the capacity of local sanitation enterprises/entrepreneurs. Improved business performance by these businesses means timely response to demand from households. This book is a toolkit which incorporates a Training Guide/Manual as well as a Workbook for entrepreneurs.

Vocational Training Needs in Rural Communities
Author: Centre européen pour la promotion et la formation en milieu agricole et rural
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Agricultural education
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This bibliographical research study surveys recent literature on specific vocational training needs prevailing in rural communities and the most effective means of satisfying those needs. It also charts out a general overview of the vocational training situation in rural areas in the Member States of the European Community and in Spain and Portugal. Part One identifies the major objectives of training--those which derive from the component parts of the rural milieu and those which derive from the activities peculiar to rural life. Within the full range of the needs identified, the major part of all publications on rural vocational training attach priority to training for farming personnel. Part Two examines the development of this type of training. It addresses training supply and demand, objectives and methods of training in agriculture, and special target groups for training in rural areas: women, and individuals with a nonagricultural background. Part Two also looks at the question of the training inputs made in connection with local rural development projects that are expected to supplement the sectoral training by dealing with the social dimensions of life in a rural community and to cover the needs experienced by people engaged in other occupational fields. Part Three offers conclusions. A five-page bibliography is included. (YLB)

Demand-Driven Approaches in Vocational Education and Training
Author: Muthuveeran Ramasamy
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3658125101
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Muthuveeran Ramasamy shows that the formal way of vocational education and training (VET) in rural areas often ignores the illiterate, the less educated, and the poor. The author demonstrates that VET programs need to be demand-driven and consider the socio-economic aspects of particular regions. Therefore, the significance of the study at grassroots level helps customize VET programs to respond to the demand of the individuals’ vocational training needs of rural people by keeping their endogenous needs at the centre of vocational skill development processes. The findings and lessons learnt from action research are also intensively discussed as guiding principles of demand-driven approaches from the learners’/societal perspectives.
