This event aims to serve as a meeting point for people from different university areas (students, alumni, faculty & research personnel, administrative & services personnel, etc.) who all share something in common: having undergone the enriching experience of participating as a volunteer in this Central African country as part of the UMH cooperation program that the UMH has been running there for over 20 years.<\/p>\nThis event will also serve as a promotional chat about the upcoming UMH volunteer edition for summer 2024. This meeting will share some key dates about the next volunteering edition in Rwanda, so we encourage the entire university community who is interested in participating in the 11th<\/sup> edition of the program to attend this meeting to obtain information about the call. As is standard operating procedure, the UMH covers the travel costs to and from this African country for the university community members who are chosen for the program. The program dates are for summer, usually July – September, and the program aims to provide training plus social and health assistance for the local Rwandan population, however the intention is for this edition to incorporate some new features.<\/p>\n The get together will begin with a brief presentation by the Vice Rectorate for Internationalization and Cooperation, the Service of International Relations, Development Cooperation and Volunteerism, as well as the UMH Headquarters in Rwanda Chair.
