Youth in Development

Youth in Development

Youth Development Volunteers work with youth to strengthen their life skills, prepare them for the workforce, and promote civic engagement in non-political activities that benefit their community.

Volunteers are strategically placed in rural secondary and high schools, working with youth aged 9-24 years old.

They work to facilitate the Ministry of Education Life Skills curriculum in schools and collaborate with community counterparts to provide support for in and out of school youth, young men and boys, and adolescent girls and young women. They support workforce readiness, teach basic business skills, and help implement income- generating activities (IGAs) to ensure that no one is left behind.

Health

Community Health

Volunteers work with health service providers in health facilities to improve the supply chain processes to deliver and manage commodities. Within these facilities, Volunteers also establish or strengthen existing support groups and teen clubs for youth living with HIV/AIDS in order to promote their care, treatment, and overall well-being.
