Talk about volunteering in Zambia
Last Thursday, February 21, he visited the Casa del Alumno David Sanchez Soto, graduated in architecture and former student of the UPV, to explain the experience of his volunteering during the last six months in Zambia and the previous training to it.
David has collaborated together with Roser Maura, with the CICD (School for International Cooperation and Development), DAPP NHQ and CHILD AID in carrying out three projects.
The first project realized during his stay was to improve the facilities of the Nakamabala Approved School, a government school that welcomes young people between 8 and 19 years who have committed some crime. The main objective of DAPP is to give children access to programs to improve their social skills.
The second project was developed in the Nampundwe Child Aid, where they collaborated with the communities of Nampundwe, Makombwe, Kalundu and Milandu to carry out evaluations, rehabilitation of the installation and construction of toilets and prepare teachers for 13 of the 20 nurseries in the area.
In the third project, they collaborated with SARAI, a DAPP project that focuses on promoting sexual health and family planning through educators and with the active participation of young people from the communities. During their stay, they visited some of the Ndole clinics and participated in activities organized by the clinics related to raising awareness about HIV and other STDs and the creation of safe spaces where young people can openly discuss these issues.
