HIV and AIDS volunteers needed for Sub Saharan Africa

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

I'm writing to you from VSO, a international charity working with

volunteers to fight poverty and disadvantage worldwide. One of our goal areas is

HIV and AIDs and we have programs running in Asia and Africa.

Most of our programs work through partner organisations where VSO

identifies needs in terms of human resources and then find quality

volunteers for them. Almost all of our work is delivered through

volunteers, volunteers work with partner organisations and build their

capacities. Volunteers are recruited from recruitment bases in India, UK,

Netherlands, Canada, Kenya and ines. For more information about VSO,

please visit <http://www.vso.org.uk/> www.vso.org.uk.

For our HIV/AIDS programs in Africa, we are looking to recruit

volunteers from India ( Candidates who are not from India but have the necessary

experience can also apply) . A post graduate qualification (like Masters of

Social Work) with more then 3 years of experience of working on HIV/AIDS is

required for all volunteer positions. Experience of working with MSM ( Men

Having Sex with Men) and Drug users communities is highly desirable. Most

positions are based in Africa.

Support and Benefits

Selected volunteers will get a free return air ticket, free

accommodation and a modest, but comfortable living allowance. But most

valuable of all is chance to forge new friendships, discover hidden

talents and gain a unique view HIV/AIDS work in Africa.. an experience you will

never forget. You will be working with limited resources and need to garner the

support of a wide range of stakeholders. So your higher order management skills

will have every opportunity to grow. It is also an opportunity to bring the

learnings from Africa in the area of HIV/AIDS to India.

assignment can be found at <http://www.ivoindia.org/> www.ivoindia.org
