Development through International Volunteers in Ethiopia
Challenges and Strategies for Sustainability
Description
Over the last many years, several agencies and volunteer based organisations have been recruiting and deploying international volunteers to Ethiopia. Their aim is to support the development process in the country by transferring skills and building local capacities. However, little academic literature exists as to whether this approach to development results in sustainable capacities in host organisations. To what extent are the changes brought about by the volunteers sustained when they leave? Is the traditional approach of sharing skills to counterpart staff adequate? This book examines these and other questions of sustainability in development through international volunteers. The analysis of challenges and strategies, and the recommendations will be of interest to volunteers, managers, and organisations involved in capacity development.
