Terms of Referece for Assessing competencies and training of agricultural stakeholders in the use of virtual systems and e-delivery for learning and sharing information in the era of COVID-19

The advent of COVID-19 has disrupted face to face interaction of CCARDESA with its key stakeholders including its ICKM national focal point persons with whom they routinely share ways and means of strengthening the information sharing process in the SADC region. This has made CCARDESA explore ways of engaging its stakeholders virtually. However, the realization that most stakeholders may not have knowledge on how to use the existing virtual platforms, let alone know how to access them. This has prompted CCARDESA to engage a Consultant/s to develop virtual training modules that will capacitate its stakeholders with skills on how to use the virtual systems for learning and sharing information in the era of COVID-19. This calls for capacity building of stakeholders to enable them to engage and derive benefit from these tools to plan and implement actions on the ground.
