Review

I joined the program in October 2022 and finished by August 2023. It was my first time as volunteer and that's why I decided to join, I didn't need experience or even studies related to it. During my first 3 months I was involved in the most interesting classes, discussions and debates about climate change, poverty, another kind of history, colonialism and Africa, also, I was taking part in many workshops that later would be helpful in my service period. At Richmond I found the most amazing experience, I made wonderful friends and I got to be more interested in subjects related to the word.
For the next 6 months I was a preschool Development Instructor in Malawi, working with preschools in the rural areas of the country defiantly change my loge, now I look back and im proud of taking the chance of joining such a life changing experience. I got to know the people and their culture, live the daily Malawian life and make many memories and friends for the rest of my life, I also evolve as a person and I found my purpose in life.
during my 10th month I was back at Saint Vincent where I was able of sharing experiences and realising that I had changed.
If I would known before about it I would have done it way time ago, never is too late to join.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
