Restless Development is the global leader in youth-led development - demonstrating that young people can and must play a leading role at all levels of development. The UK government believes in what we do and has asked us to launch the International Citizens Service (ICS) programme in Uganda. ICS is their new intiative which, following the completion of a short term community based experience, aims to empower young people and their society to promote global citizenship. Our ICS programme in Uganda will accomplish this aim by placing volunteers ages 18-22 years with youth focused CSO's for a 3 month period.
If your CSO could benefit from capacity building in organisational systems and management, and are interested in hosting 2 volunteers (one national and one international) prepared to support your organisational growth and commitment to youth development, then we encourage you to apply. CSOs eligable to apply are those that are registered and are based in the districts of Iganga, Kamuli, Mayuge, Kayunga, Kaliro, Jinja, but you must not be more thatn 2 hours travelling distance (by public means) from Jinja town. For more information on what interested CSO's would be required to do please click here.
To apply please download the application form here and send completed applications to margaret@restlessdevelopment.org by the 21st of April.
