This Peer Circle Program provides an opportunity for field practitioners to apply CCHN tools and methods as part of their day-to-day work; hence bridging the gap between theory and practice.
Through self-assessments and regular peer-to-peer sessions, participants examine how CCHN negotiation tools and methods are applicable to their operational context.
Members benefit from individualized attention as well as a continuous long-term opportunity for collective peer support in the planning of their humanitarian negotiations in a non-prescriptive manner and based on shared experiences rather than policy or operational advice.
