Description of the organization
ENVIE D’AGIR is an apolitical, non-profit association that undertakes actions aimed at improving community development in Togo. It aims to improve the living conditions of the population, especially in rural areas. ENVIE D’AGIR welcomes students, recent graduates, professionals and unqualified individuals looking for a humanitarian mission or study placement. Interships last from 2 to 6 months.
ENVIE D’AGIR offers a unique experience: the intern or volunteer is given real responsibilities under the supervision of permanent members of the host organization. They are encouraged to work autonomously in project management. What’s more, the exotic setting of Togo encourages trainees to move away from a traditional, theoretical approach to their skills: they need to adapt to the field and understand its specificities.
