Kuruluş
In the spirit of regional understanding and cooperation Seven Southern African Sister voluntary inspired youth organisations namely Botswana Workcamps Association (Botswana), GEPI Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe Workcamps Association (Zimbabwer) South Africa Volunteer Work Camp Association (South Africa), AJUDE & AJOV (Mozambique) forged partnership for a regional camp which will last about 2 months starting from Botswana, then to Zimbabwe and After to South Africa ending in Mozambique.

İş Tanımı
The community services programme is targeted at young people working in the local community and other civil organizations implementing development/ workcamps activities in Southern Africa. These Southern Africa Workcamp Cooperation members have recognized a growing professionalism within the voluntary development sector in the region. It is with this mind that these volunteer organisations would like to accord their staff members and youth leaders an opportunity to benefit from a concerted regional workcamp focusing on climate justice, decolonization and South-South youth exchange and cooperation. The workcamp will provide participants with interdisciplinary learning situations within the development process that can be analyzed, critiqued, and reflected upon. A deliberate attempt has been made to integrate the relevant theory with experiential background of participants. The workcamp will have the capacity to build practical skills along theoretical training. The workcamp programme is a result of the need to enhance regional integration as envisioned by the Pan Africa ideology. The main objective of this regional project is to empower the young people from Southern Africa and the Global Community with contemporary new skills and knowledge in the broader section of international development. Upon completing this regional camp, the youths will return into their communities and disseminate information and practice their skills. The participants will also draw up some training programmes for their respective communities.
