How Agapao Works

Agapao International works with young people and communities to develop skills through leadership and vocational training. Health care and educational needs are addressed through sustainable projects which are managed by the community. Local people are given the skills to develop those around them through a simple ethos - learn a skill, use a skill, share a skill.
Agapao International empowers Community Development Managers through training and personal development, working closely with them to enhance their skills. The CDM's are chosen based on their ability to assess community needs, identify leaders and solutions then implement change through motivation and enthusiasm.
The CDM's visit villages and communities and train Community Development Volunteers.

They then work with their own community and if they embrace the opportunity, a partnership agreement is discussed and the community is nominated to receive a Community Impact Kit.
Opportunities exist for volunteers to share their skills on an 'Impact Holiday' or for longer term visits in developing countries.
