Humanitarian volunteering mission for young African leaders in the diaspora

A humanitarian volunteer mission abroad is above all a mission of around three weeks, during which people of all genders, from different backgrounds, of various cultures, religions and nationalities, put together their energy to accomplish an achievement for the benefit of a given community.

This collective and voluntary work is all the more important in poor countries, including Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea and Ghana. A volunteer mission in these countries is an opportunity to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures: in fact it is the place par excellence of giving and receiving which allows everyone to share while respecting the differences of his next ; the opportunity to discover a region, its inhabitants and their culture; the possibility of getting involved in a new form of manual team work for the benefit of local populations for sustainable human development; collective participation in all aspects of group life: cooking, washing dishes, cleaning, fetching water and leisure activities.

In short, participating in a volunteer mission is rewarding training because it leads to: Individual and collective responsibility; respect for others, the ability to express oneself, to listen and to live in a group; solidarity (respect for each person’s capacity and pace). At YOUNG LEADERS INTL ORGANIZATION FOR PEACE & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, INC, a mission comes down to four fundamental words:

  • Acceptance
  • Adaptation
  • Tolerance
  • Solidarity

It is above all a mixture of different cultures; and for the good atmosphere in the group, it takes a lot of concession from all the participants. The community life of the group is therefore everyone's business and everyone must put a little of their own into it for its smooth running.
