OAS ANTI-DRUG COMMISSION CONCLUDES TRAINING WORKSHOP IN SURINAME
November 22, 2002
Twenty-three (23) participants completed a one-week Training of Trainers Workshop sponsored by the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission (CICAD) of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the National Anti-Drug Council (NAR) of Suriname, on Friday, November 22, 2002. The workshop is the fourth conducted under the Caribbean-Wide Project on Drug Abuse Prevention and Child-Oriented Policies. All the participants were selected from teachers training institutions, and are expected to become active trainers under the program.
Delivering the feature address at the closing ceremony, the Director of the Office of the General Secretariat of the OAS in Suriname, Ambassador Kingsley Layne, congratulated the trainers and participants on behalf of CICAD and wished them a happy 27th Independence Anniversary, on behalf of the OAS. He said that training of trainers activities are dynamic aspects of a project, and, if properly utilized, have a multiplier effect, and will outlast physical equipment. Three trainers, graduates from a previous workshop, helped to facilitate the exercise.
He spoke about the outcomes of the project so far, which include: a trained and consolidated core group of health and education professionals to implement national activities on drug abuse prevention; the development of educational material on basic concepts of drug abuse prevention, based on current knowledge; material on participatory methodologies for drug abuse prevention; the design and implementation of educational modules adjusted to national plans of action for training drug abuse prevention professionals; and the production of recommended guidelines for the follow-up and evaluation of national activities.
In its third year the multinational project will produce: a pool of professionals from thirteen (13) participating countries to strengthen national plans and train drug abuse prevention personnel; a minimum of 150 professionals and 2000 children, youth, parents and community leaders from participating states trained and involved in project-related activities; an international team of university professors for enhanced regional distance learning; and a regional network for project promotion and technical support for the implementation of national plans of action.
The certificates were presented by Mr. Primnath Ritoe, the Coordinator of the Caribbean-Wide Project and Chairman of the NAR, and Ambassador Layne.
