In the Netherlands
SYPO is completely dependent on the commitment of the Board of Supervision, Director work group members and others connected to the foundation. SYPO will grow in the coming years, and if you feel that your expertise would contribute to this foundation, please let us know.
At the moment, we are looking for:
- A work group member of the work group MediStructures (volunteer position). For this medical project, we are looking for someone with experience in the development of health care in developing countries. This person will help with the medical strategy of the project and communication with Uganda, as well as promotion of the project in the Netherlands. The work group in the Netherlands meets about once every two months.
- HTML/CSS/Flash developer. For our website, SYPO is looking for someone to maintain and further develope the HTML/CSS/Flash. Early 2010, this person will also be responsible for the development of the interactive 'SYPO microbanking' application, in which individual sponsors can extend loans to clients of SYPO microdevelopment through sypo.nl. For this task, the HTML developer will work together with SYPO's Oracle developer who has constructed the SYPO microdevelopment database.
Uganda
Although the SYPO projects in Uganda do not always need volunteers, we would like to offer you the possibility to do relevant and interesting volunteer work in Uganda; in an organisation that matches your specific interests and experience. To realise this, SYPO operates the project Counterpart Travels. Check the project page on this website here or the project's own website here. Counterpart Travels is an incredible way to get to know Uganda and work to support the development of the Mukono district.
