About the project
Fambidzanai Permaculture Centre
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
The organization works towards achieving food secure Zimbabwe that depends on sustainable land-based food systems (permaculture). Activities thrive on skills training in sustainable agriculture methodologies. Trainings are supplemented by practical demonstrations illuminating the ecological and economy viability of permaculture. Creating enhancing and facilitating market opportunities for farmers produce remains a key
mandate. FPC also focuses on climate justice and leadership with the primary objective of community development through training, awareness raising and advocacy.
💼 What the programme involves
Scope of Work:
The organisation is failing to take care of the ever-increasing number of people in need of help, hence the dire need of a Resources Mobilization officer. The Resource Mobilization Officer will contribute to Fambidzanai work through research/documentation, social media, monitoring and evaluation and resource mobilization. The ideal candidate will be specially.
Working Schedule: Participants work around 8 hours a day from Monday to Friday. The lion’s
share of our volunteer placements does not require volunteers to work on public holidays and
weekends, unless highlighted or in the event of the need arising from the project.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Volunteers will be accommodated at the Centre. Rooms are available to individual volunteers. Volunteers with special needs like seniors/ aged, families and physically challenged will have special arrangements for their accommodation.
🍲 Food
Basic meals will be provided in the host family from what is locally available in the local community. Volunteers are therefore advised to be flexible and open minded. This will make it easy to negotiate entry into the community as volunteers.
⚠️ Requirements
Expectations from Projects: Volunteer projects take place in very humble places around
Zimbabwe. The bulk of our projects are not that difficult at all, what is only needed is flexibility,
positive mentally attitude as well as openness to new culture, new experience. The secret remedy
to, make the most of your time while volunteering in Zimbabwe is to adapt to the local
environment. It important to highlight each and every project is unique, hence volunteers should
make the most of their time with the community they serve, since this is a chance of a life time, to
work and live with people in their respective communities, just like them.
🤝 Meeting point
Arrival and Orientation: Volunteers will be picked up from the Airport or regional bus station
in on request. They will be transferred to any lodge in town of their choice. Two-day orientation
will be organized in close collaboration with the volunteers and ZWA staff. The main objective of
the orientation is to minimize the effects of cultural shock as well as to build capacities for the
volunteers, so as to meet the community with open mind.
