Description

This project offers agriculture, animal husbandry, farming, and vocational training skills for the deaf, deaf blind, and visually impaired young adults. Most of the trainees come from a very poor background. The training at the centre enables them to work on their own and support themselves in the future. Most of the times they are trained in practical work but they also attend some theoretical classes.

Highlights

You will help the trainees on the farm, either with the crops or with the animals.

In the field you will show your trainees how to weed, garden, build irrigation and harvest the crops.

In the farm you will show them how to feed the animals, milk the cows, clean the enclosures and teach them general veterinary health care. You will be supporting trained local staff throughout your placement who will guide and advise you.

Finally, you will compliment the hands on work by adding theory in the classroom, writing notes on all your activities on a blackboard for all to note down. If you are able, you can also teach how to read and write in brail, and talk in sign-language.
