The Volunteer’s Role


Benishangul-Gumuz (BSG) is one of Ethiopia’s emerging regional states with an estimated total population of nearly a million people.

The Regional Health Bureau (RHB) is making every effort to provide integrated, effective, and equitable health services through the extensively expanding primary health care program.

Currently, there are 37 Health Centres and 398 Health Posts operating as primary health care units for the general community and few more are under construction.

Nonetheless, limitation of skilled health workers, supplies, and management support has impeded the quality of services provided in most of these health facilities.

Pawe College of health science is the only health science college managed by the regional health bureau in addition to the federal university, Assosa University.

This college has no Gender Advisor that helps to analyze gaps that hinder the institution to serve the community at scale.

The overall objective of the placement is to support and improve the English proficiency of college instructors, students and other administrative staff through in-service training which helps to improve the quality of education, so that students and instructors can fulfil their potential.

Teachers often lack the facility with English to be able to effectively teach their pupils. So this placement will help them to meet the objectives for producing competent health professionals.
