A number of topics were introduced to serve as a focus for discussion. Some were introduced by the guest moderator; others were introduced by the participants themselves. The discussion covered the following issues: differences between post-conflict and post-disaster situations, TVET after tsunami and natural disaster; the challenges and importance of reintegrating ex-combatants; the role of TVET for (post-conflict) employment; the role of TVET during unstable situations and in emergency phases; the necessary components of skill programmes relevant in post-conflict and post-disaster situations; and the importance of considering personal recovery and resilience.
Participants agreed that universal elements of good practice are important, while also recognizing that local factors – which include the people and their cultural, social, religious and environmental outlook – must be well understood and must underpin all aspects of planning and delivery. TVET programming should be comprehensive and include non-vocational components, such as generic and entrepreneurial skills. Finally, the participating TVET experts expressed that a good response of TVET in post-conflict and post-disaster situations requires the active involvement of three main partners - government to set policy and regulations, training providers to do the actual training, and employers who will employ the training graduates.
