Building Recognition of Long-Term Volunteering
The main aim of AJUDE – ICYE Mozambique’s visibility campaign has been to build recognition of the long-term ICYE volunteering programme in Mozambique in order to reach young Mozambicans and inspire them to volunteer abroad. For this, AJUDE has attended public events with other volunteering and civil society NGOs and info-desks at youth cultural centres and fairs.
EVENTS/ACTIVITIES:
International Women’s Day
On 11th March 2017 AJUDE – ICYE Mozambique participated in an open fair in Maputo in commemoration of International Women’s Day. The day was filled with opportunities to meet new people and organisations and participate in sports activities. AJUDE had a stand at the fair, where it reached many young people who showed an interest in participating in a long-term volunteering programme abroad. It also enabled AJUDE to make connections with potential partners from among the NGOs attending the fair.
