Hey Expaters.
I have just applied for 6 months study visit on Mauritius (When i say study, it is a combination of that i have to study whilst i read books and study). I have the opportunity to select where i want to go and study. My field is a combination between social worker and nurseries i study. 'i only think the excact education exsists in Denmark. I can work with kids, people with disabilities (of all kind), youth jails and other things surrounding that field.
My question is if any knows some places i can seek to come? Good workspaces in Mauritius in my field. I have found a SOS Childrens village as the only think yet ... Can you help me ?

Dear Jonas,

You might find what you are looking for on this website: www.actogether.mu

The aim of the website www.ACTogether.mu is to encourage networking among NGOs which fight against exclusion, discrimination and poverty in Mauritius.

The website is now used daily by NGOs, social workers, CSR managers, journalists and people interested in the non-profit sector in Mauritius.

All services provided are free of charge and include:
- A dedicated corner for the small adverts from NGOs and individuals
- Articles that are sent by email twice a month through a newsletter
- Detailed information about Mauritian NGOs: contacts details, activities…
 
Thanks to ACTogether, NGOs have a better visibility for their advocacy campaigns as well as for their fundraising and recruitment. It also helps them to find new volunteers and new donors.
