Hi guys! As some of you know, I was lucky enough to be chosen this year to participate in the UCDVO Volunteering & Global Citizenship Programme, a component of which is a 4-week virtual voluntary placement in July with Nurture Africa based in Uganda. UCDVO is a registered charity which provides UCD students, staff and alumni the opportunity to engage in a year-long volunteering and global citizenship programme for the benefit of disadvantaged communities overseas, in response to needs explicitly identified by those communities.Throughout the next year, I will participate in a series of UCDVO Programme Days, including development education workshops, training and team-building activities before and after virtual volunteering takes place. Examples of UCDVO projects include: A community development project with Assam Don Bosco University in India, Healthcare projects with Ferrando Speech and Hearing Centre, Meghalaya,India; the Holy Union Sisters, Dar, Tanzania. A community healthcare, livelihoods and vocational training project with Nurture Africa, Nansana, Uganda. And an early years education programme for 80 girls in New Delhi, India inpartnership with the Society for Working Life (SWL) and Women’s Work andHealth Initiative (WWHI). As part of the programme, I must fundraise €750 by 31st May 2021. Since the programme will be carried out virtually, there are no volunteer costs so all the funds that are raised go directly to the charities involved in UCDVO. Your support will be greatly appreciated. Thank you! - Imani.
