THE DEVELOPMENT INSTRUCTOR PROGRAM

The Development Instructor program is a “People to People” activity where many people meet under the umbrella of positive change, and where all parties involved, benefit mutually from the activities. In this way all parties develop into a diverse and unified whole around the interest and activities, furthering change and positive development.

The Development Instructor programs are 14/20 months long with 3 very different, yet mutually dependent periods. Here follows a short description of the specific periods;

 

v      First Period –Preparation and Outreach period in California 

A 6 months period aiming to equip each individual and team of people with the necessary tools, knowledge, experience and understanding to be able to place themselves in middle of the turmoil of which we define as development.

 

In other words, to be well prepared and able to create a positive change at the development projects of organizations connected to the Humana People to People movement.

 

 

v      Second Period – Development work in Africa

 

A 6/12 months work period at a project in Mozambique or Namibia.

 

This is when each person involved gives his/her contribution by having a humanizing influence upon development. Let this be fighting the spread of AIDS/HIV, instructing at schools for children, in training future school teachers, in community work empowering families and implementing low-cost “high technological” improvements for example “wood saving stoves”, “latrines”, “small scale water filters” and more. 

 

                          

 

v      Third Period – Bring the past experience into the future.

 

A 2 month period called “Camp Future” or simply just the “Third period.”

 

This period is orientated towards the future and how to effectively use the experiences of the past year to encourage more people to follow in our footsteps and to be inspired. Each participant will use the past experiences to define their future direction in life. This is information work, in the broadest sense of the word, to educate many people as well as ourselves.
