Other volunteers will be those recommended by the youth organizations of the country that are involved in partnership with Vital Actions for Sustainable Development in this project.
The volunteers must have good public speaking skills and strong knowledge on environmental issues like climate change, biodiversity, sustaining natural resources. Other skills like how to manage a volunteer’s team, how to work on a green campaign or how to repair a spoilt faucet or electric installation will be useful and a plus.
