Servas Uganda will hold its first peace school from the 25th-30th August 2024 in the village of Buyoga. Butoga is located 20 miles from Masaka city in Kibinge sub-county, Bukomansimbi District. The village is well known for coffee and matoke and the people of the village are mostly subsistence farmers. They are welcoming, friendly and kind to others.
The language commonly spoken is Luganda and during peace school, a team of volunteers will be available to help translate.
All volunteers will be staying in the village with families. Arrangements are in place for this. Many children have not yet had the chance to interact with people from various places across the world except in the literature they read. With peace school, we hope to bring different cultures closer to our village as a way of promoting peace, understanding and appreciation.
What will volunteers do?
- Meet locals and the children (7-15 years)
- Share their skills with the children
- Play games with the children
- Learn about our culture through stories and real-life experience
- Share experiences with the children
- Share their culture and so much more ...
