About the co learning space

Advancing just sanitation across urban Africa 

Applications closed!

The co-learning space will bring together a group of practitioners who are committed and well positioned to embrace the challenge of building equitable sanitation for women and men across the region by joining us. This exciting initiative is organised by the action-based research network OVERDUE from University College London in collaboration with project partners in Abidjan, Antananarivo, Beira, Bukavu, Freetown, Mwanza and Saint Louis.  

What is a co learning space? 

Unlike most webinars or lectures online, a co learning space takes a critical pedagogy approach which fosters collaborative learning for transformative action . It pushes those involved to reflect critically on the status quo of sanitation in their contexts to uncover ways to do things differently. We will all be learning from each other and creating a legacy of materials and recordings for future open source learning.  

What is this co learning space about? 

Participants in the co learning space will develop a 360-degree perspective on the sanitation service chain. We will make 3 key stops to examine: 1. Access and Construction, 2. Storage and Distribution and 3. Treatment and re-use. We will approach each of these stops by exploring everything from pipes to people as infrastructure, from investments and policies to collective action, from sanitation facilities to health and environmental outcomes, from bylaws to social norms. In a nutshell, everything that matters to make urban sanitation a vehicle to build a caring and gender equitable city. 

What will I get from this co learning space? 

This is a chance to get first-hand exposure to actionable knowledge from the OVERDUE cities and the opportunity to network and interact with sanitation champions and experts. OVERDUE will draw on its contacts in sanitation internationally to bring in some expert views to trigger debate and ideas.  

Come and join us to spearhead just sanitation across urban Africa through collective mobilisation and advocacy, as we build a regional pledge and charter to accelerate progress towards the realisation of sanitation as a human right that underpins most UN Sustainable Development Goals.   

Participants will receive a Certificate from the Bartlett Development Planning Unit at University College London accrediting their active participation across the 4 sessions.

Faire avancer l’assainissement équitable en Afrique urbaine  

Candidatures terminées!

Cet espace de co-apprentissage réuni un groupe de praticiens et practiciennes qui sont engagés et positionnés pour  construire un assainissement équitable pour les femmes et les hommes à travers la région en se joignant à nous. Cette initiative passionnante est organisée par le réseau de recherche-action OVERDUE basé à University College London en collaboration avec ses membres à Abidjan, Antananarivo, Beira, Bukavu, Freetown, Mwanza et Saint Louis.  

Qu’est-ce qu’un espace de co-apprentissage ?  

Contrairement à la plupart des webinaires ou des conférences en ligne, un espace de co-apprentissage adopte une approche pédagogique critique qui favorise l’apprentissage collaboratif en vue d’une action transformatrice. Il pousse les personnes impliquées à réfléchir de manière critique au statu quo de l’assainissement dans leur contexte afin de découvrir des moyens de faire les choses différemment. Nous apprendrons tous les uns des autres et créerons un ensemble de matériaux et d’enregistrements pour un futur apprentissage en libre accès.   

Quel est l’objet de cet espace de co-apprentissage ?  

Les participants à l’espace de co-apprentissage développeront une perspective à 360 degrés sur la chaîne des services d’assainissement. Nous ferons trois arrêts clés pour examiner 1. L’accès et la construction, 2. le stockage et la distribution et 3. le traitement et la réutilisation. Nous aborderons chacune de ces étapes en explorant tous les aspects de l’infrastructure et des services, des canalisations aux personnes, des investissements et des politiques à l’action collective, des installations sanitaires aux résultats en matière de santé et d’environnement, des règlements aux normes sociales. En un mot, tout ce qui compte pour faire de l’assainissement urbain un vecteur de construction d’une ville solidaire et équitable, incluant notamment une perspective genre.  

Qu’allez vous retirer de cet espace de co-apprentissage ?  

C’est l’occasion d’avoir une exposition directe aux connaissances pratiques produires par OVERDUE dans 7 villes africaines,l’opportunité de réjoindre un réseau mobilisé sur ces questions, et d’interagir avec des champion.ne.s et des expert.e.s de l’assainissement. OVERDUE s’appuiera sur ses contacts dans le domaine de l’assainissement au niveau international pour apporter des points de vue d’experts afin de susciter des débats et des idées.   

Rejoignez-nous pour mettre en place un assainissement juste à travers l’Afrique urbaine par le biais d’une mobilisation collective et d’un plaidoyer, alors que nous construisons un engagement régional et une charte pour accélérer les progrès vers la réalisation de l’assainissement en tant que droit humain qui sous-tend la plupart des Objectifs de Développement Durable des Nations Unies.

Kuendeleza Usafi wa Mazingira na Vyoo Katika Miji ya Afrika. 

Je ipi ni maana ya Nafasi ya Kushiriki Mafunzo ya Pamoja yaani Co – Learning Space? 

Tofauti na nafasi nyingi za kujifunza kupitia mitandao au mihadhara ya mtandaoni, nafasi hii ya kujifunza pamoja mafunzo haya ya maswala ya vyoo na usafi wa mazingira inatumia mbinu za ufundishaji ambazo ni shirikishi ili kuleta mabadiliko kwa vitendo. Inasukuma washiriki kujifunza na kutafakari kwa kina kuhusu hali ya usafi wa mazingira na vyoo katika muktadha wao na kufichua namna ya kufanya mambo kwa njia tofauti. Sote tutakuwa tunajifunza kutoka kwa kila mmoja wetu.   

Je Ushiriki wa Mafunzo ya Pamoja yaani Co – Learning Space unahusu nini? 

Washiriki katika mafunzo haya watashiriki kupembua kwa mapana mfumo wa mlolongo/sanitation service chain wa huduma za vyoo na usafi wa mazingira. Tutajifunza vitu muhimu 3 ambavyo ni kuangalia: 1. Upatikanaji na Ujenzi wa maswala ya vyoo, 2. Uhifadhi na Unyonyaji wa maji taka na 3. Jinsi ya kutibu majitaka na kuyatumia tena yaani re-use. Tutaangalia mfumo wa mlolongo wote wa maji taka kuanzia mabomba ya vyoo hadi watu na miundombinu, kuanzia uwekezaji, sera hadi juhudi za pamoja za wanajamii yaani collective actions, kuanzia maswala ya afya na matokeo yake katika mazingira, kuanzia kwenye sheria ndogo ndogo hadi kanuni/tamaduni za kijamii kuhusu maswala ya vyoo. Kwa kifupi, ni kila kitu ambacho ni muhimu katika maswala ya vyoo na usafi wa mazingira ili kuleta usawa wa kijinsia katika miji. 

Nitapata faida gani kama nitashiriki Mafunzo haya ya Pamoja yaani Co – Learning Space? 

Hii ni fursa ya kupata ufahamu wa moja kwa moja wa maarifa yanayoweza kutekelezeka kuhusu maswala ya vyoo na usafi wa mazingira kutoka kwa washirika kutoka miji ambayo OVERDUE inafanya kazi na ni fursa ya kukuza network na kujifunza zaidi kutoka kwa wataalamu mbalimbali. Timu ya mradi wa OVERDUE itatumia mawasiliano yake na wadau wa usafi wa mazingira na vyoo kimataifa ili kuleta maoni ya wataalamu na kuwezesha mjadala na mbadilishano wa mawazo katika kujifunza. 

Njoo ujiunge nasi ili ya kuendeleza usafi wa mazingira na vyoo katika miji ya Afrika kupitia uhamasishaji wa pamoja na utetezi, hasa tunapoangalia maswala ya vyoo kama haki za binadamu kama yalivyoainishwa kwenye Malengo ya Maendeleo Endelevu ya Umoja wa Mataifa.
