This is about who and what?

I am Thomas and I am 28 years. I work as a youth delegate for the Norwegian Red Cross in Sudanese Red Crescent. The assignment is 12 months where 9 months are in the field in The Sudan. I live by the Red Sea in a harbor city called Port Sudan.

This page on our national webpages describes well what we, youth delegates, do in general and how to become one. I am sorry, but these pages are only in Norwegian.

In more detail, here in Sudan, we do:

- Teach sexual health to battle Sexual Transmitted Infections (STI`s)

- Teach and spread the Red Cross and Red Crescent movement values & mandate; International Humanitarian Law (IHL)

- Hopefully refunding and reopening of a Street Children Centre in Port Sudan city. This would benefit approx 700 street children. Mothers of some the children, also living on the street, is also within the centers target group.

- Create volunteer activity groups in all the above mentioned work. So that they take all the work with them when we, the two youth delegates, leave for home.

- Building knowlegde on english and computer skills aimed at the young volunteer. The purpose is to make them more able to read, edit and write reports, applications as well as write their own CV. A spescial thanks to Guillaime and Celine for their efforts on teaching.

This blog is for all interested people. It covers the perspectives I gain while working here in the field in Red Sea State, Sudan. I hope you find it interesting.

All the best
