After their cycle as ICS Progressio volunteers, our In-Country volunteers carry out some amazing projects. They do this with a commitment to continue supporting their communities through these ‘Action at Home’ projects completed in the different regions of the country where Progressio has been working. Some of the projects that they have done are described below:

Gracias Lempira, Honduras. 

Progressio was working with the partner organizacion Red Comal to support the farmers of the community, focused on counteracting the effects of climate change and promoting environmentally friendly agricultural management. From July 2014 to June 2015.
