During my 6
weeks stay, I’ve created the Internet site
www.wouol.org, the Association’s
promotional brochure and a photo exposition
presented on the open door day. This series
of pictures relates the daily lives of the
Association’s members and of the local
citizens of Beregadougou.
I’m
very satisfied of the collaboration between
the villagers and the Wouol leaders. In
spite of difficult life conditions, the
Wouol officials do all that is in their
power to make the volunteer’s stay a
memorable one.
My tasks, along
with my passion for photography, brought me
to discover Beregadougou through different
aspects. This way, I’ve integrated myself in
the daily lives of these people, fighting
for survival. I could observe the great
importance of the Association’s role within
the community and of the true value of my
volunteering.
We are all
citizens of this world; we have the
obligation to shout out against injustice,
but most of all to practice what we preach.
