Présentation du programme

With support from the Uganda Pioneers’ Association (UPA), an indigenous youth-led NGO, the volunteer will be assigned to Community Empowerment For Village Development Uganda (CEFOVID-UG). The charity supports marginalized slum dwellers, focusing on orphans and vulnerable children and youth in the suburbs of Kampala. The project aims to enhance access to social and economic services to address and reduce vulnerability, including poverty and lack of awareness and skills for self-sustainability. Volunteers should prepare to assist with one or more of the following: • Conduct outreach and awareness campaigns on sanitation and hygiene • Provide after-school support to children • Organize recreational activities (sports, arts) • Assist with fundraising for vulnerable households • Train staff on social media management • Participate in home and school visits to document success stories and follow up with beneficiaries

À propos de l'hébergement

Accommodation will be provided in a shared apartment with other volunteers, each having their own bedroom, located in the Kasubi-Nakulabye suburbs of Kampala City. A monthly allowance will be provided to cover food, transport, and communication expenses. The volunteer will be responsible for preparing their own meals. Public transport in and around Kampala primarily consists of commuter taxis, known locally as Matatus. For shorter distances within the community, the volunteer will mainly use motorbikes called Boda Bodas.

À propos des loisirs

The volunteer will participate in an online pre-departure training, followed by an in-person induction upon arrival at the host organization. Additionally, the volunteer will be encouraged and provided with financial support to learn the local language.

Exigences

The Participant profile: • Strong passion for working with children and youth • Comfortable working in slum or vulnerable communities • Open-minded and emotionally resilient, with the ability to adapt to the local environment • Knowledgeable in social work • Proficient in English, both spoken and written
Deadline: 07/08/2025 23:59

Informations complémentaires

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
