Would you recommend International Professors Project?

IPP is a very dynamic organization permitting volunteers freedom in defining their own volunteer experience. However, within this context it also provides challenges that help you grow in different ways in an environment of support. The organization is a terrific arena for developing news skills, honing existing skills, or sharing the advantages of your established skills in a way that means something now and in the long term view. The goal of creating international professors directly addresses the heart of education and the limitations of many educational institutions. By creating a discussion across cultural boundaries and by sharing across perspectives we become able to see our limitations. The limits to how we think, what we see as possible and how we view problems can be seen by viewing our differences. We become able to think in new ways and to see the world outside of the box when we are exposed to new ways of thinking. I couldn't recommend it more strongly.

Volunteering at IPP is an excellent opportunity to explore areas of interest and learn new skills, make new friends and network with skilled professions, while working towards making education accessible to developing nations. I truly enjoy being a part of the IPP team.

It is a well known fact that the region of Horn of Africa has a lot of problems caused by poverty, lack of stability, lack of social services such as health care, education, access to clean water,etc. HAIDO was formed by concerned professionals hailing from the region who want to promote the development of the region by engaging the local resources and by tapping international communities'expertise to tackle the enormous challenges the people of the region face.
