Volunteer With TradeAID Integrated:

Our volunteer programme dubbed “Come Stay Learn Contribute - COSLEC” connects people and organizations to the work of TradeAID Integrated. The programme offers opportunity to people interested in development practices. It affords them the opportunity to contribute to the work of the organization whiles developing their professional skills. COSLEC is a pay volunteer placement programme and the areas available are listed below:

• Food Security Projects: Under this volunteers support farmers with improved farming practices as well as climate change adaptation practices that aid food production.


• Craft Production and Marketing: Support craft makers with product designs and market information including e-marketing, catalogue development.


• FairTrade Awareness: Bolgatanga is a fair trade town and so welcome volunteers who will want to help create FairTrade awareness.


• Business Skills Training: Volunteers could also provide business skills training such as costing and pricing, marketing and planning, etc. to craft groups or farmer groups.
