🏢 About the local organisation
Our local partner is the local branch of FAGAD at Esse. It is helped by the village development committee. We work with them for years. With our one of our French partners, we have built a recreational center with library and the creation of income generating activities.
💼 What the programme involves
Theme: Support in the programme of education on the methods to prevent IST/VIH/SIDA and scholastic support.
The youth in rural areas is confronted with serious problems linked not only to primary health care, but also to unwanted pregnancies combined with the sexually transmissible illnesses, including sida. The level of our financial resources is not high, but we must make a modest contribution to try and regulate these scourges which have a major negative impact on the development of our regions, which, far from towns and lacking in contacts, are a little forgotten.
In addition, the schools and colleges are faced with a lack of teachers. By way of this project, we provide assistance to pupils with their homework and by sessions of repeating lessons or other methods of education.
Work to be done:
Organize sessions of sensibilisation programmed on themes / sketches (theatrical forum) / discussions – debates IST / SIDA and contraception / (distribution of condoms and prospectus),
Help the teachers at school / organize repeating lessons with pupils at home / help them to do their homework and follow up with them research in the library.
