-The training is for village women groups (we do not work with individuals not belonging to a group).
-The volunteer shall assist in the organizing training workshops on nutrition and other as well as research and write scripts for our nutrition radio programme. This programme entails travelling to some hinterland so the volunteer should be willing to adapt to local conditions.
Besides, the volunteer may prepare talks on HIV-AIDS (mainstreaming).
-Fundraising is an integral part of our work. The volunteer will assist us in fundraising for this project - writing up project proposal and advising on how to better manage donors.
Free-time activities
During off time, the volunteer can visit the night club (However, I do not guarantee full security at late night). It is important for the volunteer to note that night time is not the best for anyone. Vigilance is therefore envisaged on the volunteer's part. South West Region where the project is implemented, is generally very safe for all.
In the day like week ends, the volunteer can visit the beach and swim and spend some time with nature. The volunteer can also visit the Limbe Wildlife Center (zoo) and see some animals common to our forests.
All of these activities are at the volunteer's cost. Our beaches are good. There is the Seme beach and others in the West Coast of Limbe. The volunteer who likes to swim in the sea would love to go there during leisure hours - public holidays and weekends.
