We are one of North America's leading international development organizations that works through volunteers.
ABOUT THE PARTNER ORGANIZATION For the 2012-2015 strategy, Cuso's local programming partner VSO Cameroon has identified that targeting rural women would be the most strategic means of addressing poverty issues in the long term and enabling communities to support particularly vulnerable groups themselves. Since the new strategy and ways of working are still in formation, the role will include working as part of a team to identify how the outcomes can most effectively be achieved, developing new partnerships and taking forwards new areas of work.
THE VOLUNTEER'S ROLE Overall placement purpose and specific volunteer placement objectives:
Community health advisors will work with communities and health care providers to improve health outcomes for women, specifically focusing on maternal and infant health.

They will work with healthcare institutions to assess current available clinical services and identifying areas where practice can be improved. They will support the development of research and the use of data in health care provision in the area.
Specific Objectives:
• Empower women to actively participate in decision making within the household and wider community
• Empower women to take informed control of their own health and demand increase access to better quality maternal health provision
• Support inclusion of women in social auditing of health care • Support and train existing community health relay agents • Support community health providers to mainstream HIV awareness
SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS Essential requirements

• Attendance at a Cuso International assessment day (candidates must cover the first $150 of the most cost-effective travel expenses and accommodation costs).
• Travel and accommodation costs associated with pre-departure training. • Return airfare and visa/permit (this includes a return flight in the case of a family emergency). • Coverage for required vaccinations, medications and comprehensive health insurance. • Accommodation while overseas. • A modest living allowance, which varies depending on the country where you are placed. • Modest support for accompanying partners. • Quarterly payments to support you in your placement.
