🏢 About the local organisation
Founded in 1957, the NGO Association Togolaise des Volontaires au Travail (ASTOVOT) has over 60 years' experience in international voluntary service. Every year, it welcomes numerous volunteers from all over the world to its various short, medium and long-term (3 weeks to 12 months) volunteer projects in Togo.
These projects enable over a hundred national volunteers to rub shoulders with international volunteers and create a real intercultural exchange throughout the year. A member of the Comité de Coordination du Service Volontaire International (CCSVI- UNESCO), ASTOVOT works in partnership with several volunteer organizations in Europe, Asia, the United States, Canada and Africa. Its projects focus on community development through the promotion of education and citizenship, health, social and environmental protection,

1. Training and awareness-raising on the themes of informal literacy, gender, reproductive health
gender, reproductive health, sexuality education, women's rights, personal
etc.
2. Support for cooperatives and women's groups (savings management,
entrepreneurship, social communication)
3. Organizing cultural events to promote their work.
For the time being, training and awareness-raising activities take place three times a week.
It's a program that requires the volunteer to spend time researching and documenting
to prepare the workshops in collaboration with the coordination team and the beneficiaries.
🏠 Accommodation on site
International volunteers working on medium- to long-term projects are accommodated with Togolese host families. Families are chosen according to their proximity to the volunteer's place of work. They provide volunteers with a private room water and 3 meals a day (meals are adapted to the volunteer's diet). t Volunteers remain independent and are
free to go out and take part in the activities of their choice. Living with a host family allows total immersion in Togolese daily life, enabling you to discover all its facets.
