Project Description
As Togo makes strides to promote more educational opportunities for girls and young women, this NGO specifically focuses on mentoring, coaching, and professional development. The PCRV will collaborate with Pathways Togo’s field administrators and program director to plan Pathways Togo’s media and communication strategic direction relevant to the contemporary world. To ensure continuity and sustainability, the PCRV will train, coach, and mentor Pathways Togo staff on diverse media and communication strategies that meet the needs of a multitude of donors.
Please note that departure dates and other details of this project could change because of uncertainties relating to Peace Corps and local partners resuming volunteer operations. Invitees will be arriving in Togo together as a group. While the whole group's departure dates could change, dates cannot be changed for individual candidates.
