By Anne Babb | General Secretary
The Blue Cross Togo has been doing excellent prevention work for years thanks to highly dedicated volunteers, an amazing board and engaged staff! In 2018, IBC will start to cooperate more closely with the BC team in Togo to implement a Life Skills project for youth. General Secretary organised training in Lome where Anne was mainly engaged in sensitizing staff and volunteers for good governance practices, networking with a variety of local stakeholders, visiting local authorities and meeting beneficiaries. In an interview with the local media, Anne made it clear: the best way to effectively prevent people from alcohol harm, is to develop in each individual the ability to think independently and to make good, healthy choices. An education based on the Life Skills concept is a key to reaching this goal. Following Anne´s visit, BC Togo has created an extensive action plan to prepare all policies, procedures and guidelines required to comply with development cooperation partner standards, as well as Transparency International’s good governance standards.The IBC team is very much looking forward to beginning the project, and supporting BC Togo in capacity building and fundraising activities. Join our efforts by supporting our work - every little helps to make a difference!
