Description

Using the understanding of volunteerism and motivation generated during the last two IPPs, we strive to pass on the torch to the Farafra community through this third phase. The project will aim to create a volunteer program that will be sustained throughout the period following the IPP. In order to create a sustainable volunteering program in Farafra, participants will share volunteer program models that have been used in their country, while participating in and evaluating potential projects designed by the Partner Organization.  Participants, alongside the PO, will engage in small projects to try out different methodologies and learn from their successes and failures throughout the process. By the end of the IPP, both entities will be able to come up together with a model which will be initiated with the departure of the participants.  The end product of the project would be that the participants will develop a one-year volunteer program to be implemented by the Farafra community
