Mid-Term Review “Capacity-Building of Trauma Counselors in East-Jerusalem YMCA”
The "Capacity-Building for Trauma Counselors of EJY Rehabilitation Programme" initiated in 2005 with the support of Y Global and Norad, was a continuation of previous efforts in YMCA to build the capacity and knowledge among YMCA's staff dealing with trauma. The MTR has been jointly planned by Y Global and EJY; the drafting of the TOR and selection of consultants have been done in a participatory process. The review has been carried out by a team of external consultants; one Norwegian and one Palestinian supported by a volunteer from Y Global. According to the Terms of Reference, the main purpose of the review is to assess to which extent the project is on the track of achieving its stated goal: "Increased capacity level of the psycho-social counseling organizations in Palestine and transfer of knowledge to other conflict countries." On a secondary level, the goal is to promote learning among the cooperating partners EJY and Y Global in addition to other relevant parties like local authorities, NGOs, and Norad.
